Bio:   I have spent over 20 years working with students who learn differently, helping them unlock their potential and thrive in the classroom. Currently, I serve as the Student Success Coordinator at Prince of Peace Christian School, where I partner with families and teachers to ensure students receive the support they need to flourish. Prior to this, I spent 11 years as the Director of Educational Support at Coastline Christian Schools, and before that, I worked as both a private practice Educational Therapist and a classroom teacher spanning preschool through middle school. I hold a Master’s degree in Education with an emphasis in Educational Therapy from Regent University, and my passion is walking alongside struggling students and their families to provide not just answers, but real strategies that lead to confidence and success. This mission is also personal—both of my own children successfully went through the program I now champion, and today they are thriving as college graduates. Seeing their journey fuels my commitment to helping other families find the same hope and results.

Bio:   Brenda Weiland trained to work with adolescents in her undergraduate studies. When she found that many problems in the teen years had their roots in the preschool years, she completed an AMS preprimary Montessori certification program. When her own children had learning difficulties in school, she attended graduate school and earned degrees in Educational Leadership, Curriculum and Instruction, and Education of the Exceptional Child. She understands the dynamics that families with special needs go through and enjoys the transformational process that NILD brings to students and their families.

I love shopping and traveling to new places. Last but not least, I absolutely love teaching NILD therapists and students and watching the transformative impact NILD therapy can have on their lives! It is one of the greatest joys of my life. Isaiah 54:2: "Enlarge the place of your tent, stretch your tent curtains wide, and do not hold back: lengthen your cords, strengthen your stakes. "

From bush Alaska to the jungles of Costa Rica, God gave me opportunities to teach elementary school, special education, English as a second language, homeschool our three children, and mentor homeschool moms while tutoring their children. My desire as an educational therapist and certified teacher is to serve children and adults as they overcome learning challenges and become confident and competent lifelong learners.
