Who am I?

I hold a B.A. from St. Olaf College and a M.S. from Old Dominion University, both degrees in psychology. I found them more useful as a homeschool mom and now a teacher than I ever did in the workforce! My twins are college graduates. My daughter teaches in Spain and is pursuing her teaching license in Indiana. My oldest son attends seminary. Both have found their IEW education beneficial in all their university classes and their career choices. My youngest works in finance and is a member of the Indiana National Guard.

I truly believe that writing is one of two foundational skills for whatever path students plan to pursue after graduation. Without a doubt, strong writing skills will benefit your student more than almost any other class. The second foundational skill is public speaking.

I have taught IEW writing since 2005, at home, in co-ops, for tutoring, and directly for IEW.  I deeply appreciate the systematic approach of IEW and the foundation it lays for strong writing skills throughout life. I provide editing services for student papers, IEW assignments, and university papers.
