Jacquie Bonnet

Current Location:

New York, NY

Education

Tufts University, Class of 2020. BA in Theater and Performance Studies and Film and Media Studies. Summa Cum Laude

Actors Studio Drama School, Class of 2024. MFA in Acting. Summa Cum Laude

Experience

Hey there! I'm originally from the sunny shores of San Juan, Puerto Rico, but about three years ago, I traded the beaches for the bustling streets of New York City to complete my Master’s degree. Since my college days, I’ve been teaching all sorts of subjects—math, Spanish, English, and Acting! Now in NYC, I’ve been busy teaching SAT prep classes at various schools and working with students one-on-one across Brooklyn and Manhattan, tackling everything from SAT to SHSAT, SSAT, ISEE, ACT, and Spanish lessons.

One of my favorite parts of teaching? Seeing the “lightbulb moment” on a kid's face when they finally get it! I always focus on making sure each student feels heard and supported, with a little Spanish flair sprinkled in to keep things fun.

When I’m not in the classroom, you’ll probably find me auditioning for shows, hitting the gym, or booking a quick flight back to Puerto Rico to visit family. No matter where I am, I’m always keeping my Puerto Rican culture alive and sharing it with everyone around me!
