I believe in my students&#8217; ability to learn, but also to suggest, comment, question and most importantly contribute their ideas. My goal is to empower\u00a0students and have them &#8220;absorb&#8221; the information rather than memorize it. With that in mind, my focus in class is to guide thinking and learning while at the same time encouraging active participation. I tend to create a relaxed environment with laughing and jokes so that we have fun too!<\/p>\n<p><strong>On Precollege Programs:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>What a brilliant idea to explore a future career or interest now. Why wait! I think taking a Precollege course can jump-start a lifelong journey of success. Since enthusiasm is the main driver of my teaching style, I am delighted to bring this passion to high school students\u00a0and\u00a0spark interest for their future.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Industry Experience:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Head of\u00a0Diamond Edge Network<\/li>\n<li>As a motivational speaker, Renee has presented for leading organizations that include The NY Emmys, American Women in Radio &amp; Television, Columbia University, the Professional Insurance Marketing Association, The Brand Activation Association (BAA, formerly the PMA), the eMarketing Association, the NY Builders Show, and the Manhattan Chamber of Commerce.<\/li>\n<li>Promotional campaigns for\u00a0NBA, The U.S. Postal Service, Spalding, Revlon and MTV Networks (Nickelodeon)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Successful, multi-disciplined, marketing\/communications Professional with 30 years of experience across industries.\u00a0Renee is a talented, high energy professional that combines a sharp strategic focus with a passion for what she does.
