The Last Detail — The fold is not working. Nikodemos has been at it since before the city woke, his hands bearing blisters from yesterday's effort, a raw patch on his palm where he kept going longer than wisdom would counsel. The stela stands nearly finished on the work table — the face his master carved is almost perfect. The chiton's fold, his own work, is not. The dedication is tomorrow.

We are so grateful for Serena! Her patience, kindness, and creative approach to teaching have made learning a wonderful experience for our family. She takes the time to understand how each child learns best and tailors every lesson to keep them engaged and excited. We have seen incredible growth not only in our child’s academic progress, but also in his confidence and love for learning. We could not ask for a better teacher!
