Amy has over twenty years experience teaching and mentoring students and adults. She's passionate about tutoring children with dyslexia since she has seen first hand the impact it has made in her family.

While living in Florida, she taught as an Educational Assistant at the Preservation Foundation of Palm Beach and assisted in developing curriculum for their living history programs as well as teaching and leading programs for Palm Beach County's students and teachers. She later served as Director of Collections at Florida History Center & Museum and oversaw the collection of artifacts at three different historical sites, developed exhibits, and managed the education program. In addition to working at the museum, she also tutored at Samaritan Home for Boys in Stuart, FL. Since living in East Cobb she has served as a substitute teacher and tutored with an after-school program in Grant Park. Lastly, she has homeschooled one of her children for the past twelve years.
