“ In most subjects, there’s usually one right answer — like in history, anyone can learn the dates. But art is different. You can’t be wrong in art, because it’s yours. At Don Bosco’s, I got to explore all kinds of art — painting, writing, theatre, and stage work — and each helped me understand myself and others more deeply.
Being in theatre especially taught me how to see the world through someone else’s eyes. That kind of creative empathy has shaped who I am. And one of the main pillars behind that experience was teacher Marissa, who made every class feel like a safe space to try, fail, imagine, and grow.”

“We feel so blessed to have Marissa as part of our homeschooling journey. Her deep knowledge of art, combined with the richness of her Catholic faith, brings a unique and inspiring perspective to every lesson.
My sons — aged 10, 8, and 6 — eagerly look forward to her class every week! They’ve developed such a love and awe for art because of her thoughtful teaching and gentle encouragement. It’s a joy to see them not only grow in skill but also discover the beauty of faith through art.”

“When my daughter needed a special educator, I felt I could only trust Marissa to help. Her instant acceptance made it easy to share the struggle we’d been carrying alone. Within weeks Hannah was retaining and remembering phonics, putting sentences together and able to read bigger words. We began to see her relax a little and read full sentences without mistakes.
Marissa’s innovative teaching methods using ppts., flash cards and written work helped Hannah overcome her challenges and achieve a third grade reading level within nine months of regular classes. Now Hannah loves reading for leisure and school.”

“Ms. Marissa’s classes have always been an enriching experience, both physically and spiritually. What stood out for me is her ability to teach the subject with such kindness and respect while integrating the Christian faith. With every class she never failed to resonate with me on a deeper understanding, which brought about a part of me that greatly helped me understand my thoughts and feelings, and putting it on paper.”

“We absolutely enjoyed our art sessions with Marissa when she visited us in Dubai and she helped us to explore new and creative methods to express our ideas. She has tremendous patience and is very enthusiastic in involving our perspectives and consistently gave the right advise to improve our artworks.”
