About Austen

Hello! My name is Austen, and I'm an actor, musician, and teaching artist, based in Brooklyn. I've worked on Broadway and all over the world, but my love of fostering young minds and cultivating a supportive environment for growth keeps me ever-connected to teaching & tutoring spaces. I've taught/tutored English, reading, writing, grammar, social studies, and music, with a special emphasis in patiently attending to students with reading challenges. (I grew up struggling with Dyslexia and this ignited a passion in me to help others move through the challenge and find the joy of reading). My background as an artist allows me to turn learning time with your kid into a playful, creative collaboration. I look forward to connecting with you & your child soon!
