Meet the Instructor

Mrs. Angie Moon, B.S.

Mrs. Angela MoonMrs. Moon taught for five years. "The main thing I’m concerned about is helping children 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."
