Bio:   The 2025- 2026 school year will be my 28th year as an educator. I was a teacher and held leadership roles for 24 years in Katy ISD and CyFair ISD. It will be my fourth year at Cypress Christian School as an educational therapist. I am incredibly honored that God led me to CCS. I know that education is a ministry, and I love doing God’s work at our amazing school. I hold the following certifications/credentials: Professional Development Appraisal System Certification Texas State Teacher Elementary Comprehensive Certification Texas State Teacher Secondary Certification Texas State Teacher English As A Second Language (ESL) Certificate English as a Second Language Grades (PK-12) Elementary Self-Contained Grades (1-8) I am the proudest wife and mother. As a family, we love to be a part of our church family, volunteer together, be outdoors in nature doing all types of activities & exercise, and we all love to read. I have also volunteered for animal shelters, rescues, and animal welfare organizations for close to 3 decades. Being an advocate for children and animals is my passion. I have many Bible scriptures that I lean on at different moments in my life. However, one I recite and hold in my heart every day is Psalm 19:14, “May the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be pleasing in your sight, Oh Lord, my Rock and My Redeemer.” These also have given me peace. I have been through some health struggles this school year, and the steadfast love of the Lord has carried me through. 1 Peter 5:7 Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you. Philippians 4:6-7 Do not be anxious about anything, but in all situations, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your request to God. The peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds in Christ Jesus. Psalm 121:1-8 I will lift mine eyes to the hills from where comes my help. My help comes from the Lord, who made heaven and earth. He will not allow your foot to stumble... he will not slumber. Blessings, Tiphany Nesbit

Bio:   I'm Diane Miller. I began my journey to becoming an Educational Therapist as a classroom teacher turned Resource Teacher turned tutor during the pandemic. In 2023 I moved to southern California and was introduced to the Integrated learning Institute by the principal of Kings Schools. I met with Cynthia Moses and observed her working with two students using NILD techniques. I was amazed at the techniques she used which far surpassed my tutoring skills. I've always believed that anyone can learn if the "teacher" works with how the students brain works. The NILD techniques and mission aligned with everything I believed, but didn't know existed. I am so grateful to God for leading me to a place where I can truly work with anyone and help them become independent learners. Working with students has been the most rewarding and fulfilling thing I've ever done.
