After School Clubs
Music education facilitator
Wanda Micheal has an established background in both music and early childhood education. After operating a five-star learning center for six years, she realized that learning styles are diverse, and engaging each type of learner is a challenge. As a result, in 2015 she founded Mobile Music and Education for Kids, and educational program that teaches children through music and creative activities, developing essential skills through musical play, rhythms, exercise, creative movement, and games. In 2017, she developed Musical Education & Fitness Walk, a group educational game that quizzes players on the basics of music, math, science, and fitness. It is available everywhere books are sold. When you make learning exciting, students are more willing to participate and often find the lesson not only more fun but also more memorable.
