After many years as a teacher and a school director, I made the leap to start a school in my home. As an American Montessori Society certified teacher, I love and believe in the Montessori Method.

My favorite moment in teaching is when I see "the light" come on when a child grasps a concept. I want to teach children to be lifelong learners and lovers of learning. I believe that a child's education should be broad and filled with fascination. One day we may be searching for insects, another day we may be working with wood or reading a classic novel. Whatever each child is working on, I want them to absorb as much as they can. Practical life skills and responsibility are high on my list as well as being able to work and live together peaceably.

I teach from a faith-based foundation and Christian world-view. What we believe is at the core of who we are and it affects the way we perceive and interact with the world around us.

We are beginning our 7th year at Homestead.
