Grade K-7 Teacher
My initial education was with the University of Alberta earning my B.ED majoring in Nutritional Science and minoring in Music. I’ve always loved topics of health and the body, and I convinced my children to love classical music. My daughter, Emily, is a violinist and is currently going to school online for naturopathic medicine. My son, Adam, plays cello, double bass and piano and is currently working at Fountainview Academy in the music department. I homeschooled both my children and loved every minute of it! Sadly, my husband and I are now empty nesters, but we’re adjusting, thankful to God for all His blessings.
I have a passion for Home Education as it gives parents an opportunity to tailor their child’s education to his/her needs and passions. We don’t teach to mediocrity, but to the mastery. Our children are not assigned subjects but choose them. By pursuing their interests and challenging them in those areas, they become lifelong learners; that’s the goal. If that learning can be intertwined with Biblical principles, who knows what God can do with them! Should I play just a small role in helping parents achieve this, I am satisfied. All glory to God.
