I’m Symonette, a Jamaican author, poet, educator, certified life coach, and certified anger management specialist. I bring more than 12 years of teaching experience, including international experience, to the spaces I serve.

Through stories, poetry, coaching, and conversation, I help people recognise what they bring and make room for who they are becoming. English, Spanish, and Jamaican Patois are part of the voice I bring with me.
