Our Story..

The first glimpse of my love for teaching started when I was in elementary school. I would ask my teachers for materials they didn’t need at the end of the school year. Then use the supplies to pretend to teach during the summer with my siblings. Long story short, I eventually did become a teacher and taught for 13 years. Teaching is something that I am passionate about, and I know that God has purposed me to impact the lives of children through education. Teaching is more than just teaching a subject; it’s also about shaping the lives of students while you do it. Understanding that helped me impact the lives of children I never thought I would.

While I loved teaching in the classroom, I often dreamed of being part of a solution to a problem plaguing the school system, and I knew I couldn’t just do it from the confines of the classroom. Year after year, I saw students come to the next grade working below grade level in reading. While I didn’t know how I could be part of the solution to this problem, God led me down the road of entrepreneurship and Next Level Reading Center was birthed.
