Who is Homeschool EMU?
Hi! I’m Anna; a former teacher turned homeschooling mama of 4 (newest addition is not pictured 🤪).
I knew from a young age I wanted to be a teacher. In fact, I was volunteering in special education classrooms when I was as young as age 11. I attended Kutztown University of Pennsylvania and dual majored in Special Education and Elementary Education. Upon graduation, I moved with my husband to Virginia and taught Special Education in Prince William County Public Schools. I LOVED teaching and my students were the best part of every day! This love for my students led me to pursue a Master’s in Education focusing on English as a Second Language from Grand Canyon University. I wanted to make sure I had all the tools I needed to help them become successful learners and productive members of our community. Once I was expecting a sweet baby of my own, I began teaching part time at a small private school supporting students with learning challenges and coaching their teachers.
In 2015 my stay-at-homeschooling journey began. It was overwhelming; to say the least. All the options, theories, curriculums, activities...my head was spinning. It took so much time to learn, to research and to discover what would work best for our family and my children’s learning needs. Which, let me tell you that our house, this is still ever changing. I am so thankful for the seasoned homeschool moms who have walked with me and helped guide me on this path.
Now I want to help you! I am excited you are here and that you are exploring all the options available to your family. I know this can be overwhelming and time consuming, but it doesn’t have to be. You don’t have to do this alone! Message me and reach out, let's do this! Together!
