Her background in education and children’s ministry served as a springboard for Shalom KIDS.

 

As a Tenured Public School Educator, Terri enjoyed training pre- student and student teachers, as well as mentoring new teachers. She participated in successful learning trends involving; interdisciplinary school wide projects, smaller learning communities and cross curricular teaming in general and special education. Coursework and training in social behavioral studies and interpersonal communications fostered her value –added learning approach; empowering students to lead, teach and interact, critical think and be creative. Engaging students through a broad use of technology, creating activities and projects lending to personal application and community service built partnerships with local families, businesses and community organizations resulting in meaningful learning experiences for students. Terri effectively applied similar methods and concepts in Ministry as a Children’s Church Minister and Director of Children’s Ministry.

Branching out into market place ministry, observing various Christian Schools, Children’s Ministry and curriculums inspired her collaboration with Zoe Life Publishing to develop The Read and Write to E3xcite Publishing Program, the

E³xcite Instructional Model for Christian Educators. She is also the author of Humphrey’s Shiny New Helmet! The first book in the Victorious Kingdom Kids Series adventure story for children ages 4-10. The message of God's love and salvation is shared in a way children can understand.
