Host — Scott Fishman

Co-host — Sarita Jimenez-Fishman

Sarita is a Waldorf teacher and Curative Education specialist with over 25 years of experience.

She was born and raised in Guayaquil, Ecuador, and emigrated to the United States in 1990. She began her professional journey with three years of pre-med training with aspirations to become a doctor, but pulled her focus away from medicine when she enrolled in Lesley University in Boston, Mass, where she graduated with a Bachelor’s of Science in Expressive Therapies. 

From there, she went on to teach at a variety of schools, including Montessori schools, before finally finding her “home” in Waldorf education.

She holds a Masters of Education in “Foundations of Education” from Antioch University, and has homeschooled her two children for over a decade.
