Bio:   Beginning my teaching career in 1981, I transitioned to educational therapy in 1995. I grew the program at Lincoln Christian from me being the first therapist with 9 students to eventually having 6 teachers and 40 kids per year. So many connections and so much success achieved by these students. Currently, I have a private practice with experience in person or with teletherapy. I have also evaluated well over 100 students and excel at recommendations and effective therapy. My super power is building relationships.

Bio:   I’m Filipino, an only child, and graduate of Bachelor of Science in Secondary Education Major in English (BSED) at the Mindanao Kokusai Daigaku College, a Japanese school in Davao City. I studied Japanese language and culture for three (3) years before shifting to Education. I’m currently working remotely in events management for a global company and as a ghostwriter for an online writing platform. I used to work as an online English teacher in Cambly and in 51Talk. I envision myself to practice ET in the future to help those in need of my service. I love to read, play online games, write, crochet, do archery, paint and draw digitally, and hang out with friends.

Bio:   I attended Grace College in Winona Lake, Indiana, and earned a bachelor's degree in Elementary Education. I taught elementary school for 11 years and simultaneously completed graduate work at Shippensburg University in the field of Special Education. During that time, I was convinced that educators could do something more for students with learning disabilities; I believed there had to be a way of helping weaknesses get stronger, rather than just accommodating and modifying materials and their environment. In 2006, I attended the NILD Conference with a friend, and I was hooked! I completed Level I Training the next summer, and I have never considered any other approach to the field of Special Education. My husband and I live in Hagerstown, MD, and enjoy biking the Rail Trail and C&O Canal tow path and traveling. We also enjoy our nieces and nephews and the "grand" nieces and nephews they so graciously share with us. My whole career has been in Christian Education where I am blessed to be able to share the love of our Lord Jesus with all of my students. I believe it is by inviting Him into each educational therapy session that real transformation happens.
