**ABOUT ME:** I have spent 40 years with Jesus, 34 years married to a wonderful man (Thom), and over 25 years in home education with our six blessings. Without the first, the last two would not have been possible! I need Jesus to do everything! In 1989 I received both a bachelor's degree in education from Messiah College and my Pennsylvania Certification. In addition to instructing my own children and managing their education, I have taught all levels at various co-ops and directed several Classical Conversations Communities, and taught Challenge B as well as Essentials of the English Language. I taught ESL for three years and spent two years in Customer Service with Demme Learning, the "Math-U-See" company. During the last two years while I have been completing my Master's Degree in Special Education, I have worked for Lampeter Elementary School in learning support and then at Donegal Intermediate in Autistic Support. I hope to one day be able to offer evaluation services to families who need someone with Special Education certification. I will be getting my certification this Summer and will inquire as to what else is needed to support local families homeschooling special needs children.
After years of being eclectic in our homeschooling, we finally chose the classical model of education, which we stuck with for the vast majority of our school years. As an evaluator and mom I know it is not "one size fits all" when it comes to curriculum. I am open to many approaches to education and firmly believe that the best curriculum out there for you is the one you will consistently use! :) I have seen successful programs using a variety of approaches, so please don't think you can only use me if you teach using the classical model! I love seeing each unique homeschool program!
Thank you for booking an evaluation or consultation! I'm excited to encourage you and your child(ren) as you complete your first or yet another year of homeschooling!
