Meet the Instructor

Mrs. Angela Moon, BS

Mrs. Angela Moon, a course instructor for BJU Press Distance LearningMrs. Moon has over ten years of experience in Christian education. "The main thing I’m concerned about is helping students understand the material—as opposed to just memorizing it—and helping them enjoy learning, so they’ll want to continue. Life is about learning. The Lord is constantly teaching His children lessons that are ‘new.’ If children learn how to learn, they’ll be successful in whatever area God calls them to."
