Teacher Biography: I am in my 14th year of homeschooling and graduated my eldest child from High School in 2024. I have taught the 9 units of IEW’s Structure and Style through their History-Based Writing curriculum in a classroom setting twice and with my own children an additional five times. I am passionate about literature and reading, Bible study and daily walks.
