I taught English abroad in Indonesia for 11 years before returning back to the states to teach at a Christian school. God simply provided me with the opportunity to teach at the same Christian school my dad was teaching at, for the past year! God simply opened doors and I simply walked through them! What a wonderful experience it has been, and an honor, to teach children the truth(s) of God’s Word and to weave it into every subject taught in school. It has helped me to mature in my faith /walk with the Lord.

After living in Poland for 15 years as a missionary, God called my family back to the States. We settled in an area of the country where we did not have any familial roots. After many years of teaching ESL to my Polish students, started over and searched for a similar position. Amazingly, in the same city was an international Christian school to which I applied as a teacher. So now I am working mostly with Korean students, using my skills of imparting knowledge to people whose native tongue is not English. I am thankful for the experiences God uses in my life to prepare for the next challenge. He is faithful to equip me to do good works in the lives of these precious children. (Also, I grew up with an adopted brother from Korea).

I started in a public school and as much as i enjoyed it I knew there was more I wanted to be able to share with students and parents. After prayer the Lord open the door for me to start teaching in a Christian school.

I was a stay-at-home mom for many years. I started subbing in a local preschool as an assistant and teaching a small music course. I loved it. I didn’t think it was possible to take the time to go to school to ever become a teacher. But circumstances allowed me to begin homeschooling one of my children for a time. This gave me the time at home again and the passion to push through going back to school becasue I wanted to learn how to teach my son better and in turn prepare myself for a future of teaching! God took a situation that was uncertain and turned it into a preparation time for me.
