Summary
I am an Early Childhood Educator with a BS Degree from Pensacola Christian College. I have homeschooled our three children from K5 through 12th grade. A Beka Book materials were used through the elementary years and some in High School. Being dedicated to Christian Education and curriculum is a passion with teaching especially in the early years. I am currently substitute teaching, a piano teacher, and administrative assistant at our local church. Seeking to return to working with homeschoolers in place of administrative assistant is desired.
