About Me

My name is Mrs. Welkner, and I am originally from Miami, Florida.  I am married to my husband, Rick, and we have two grown daughters, Lindsey and Kate who are both married. I love going on walks with my husband and my family, cooking and gardening, and reading for personal enrichment.  I graduated from Baptist University of America with a BS in Education and have a M.Ed. degree in Education from North Greenville University.  I am bilingual and love teaching English and Spanish.

I always wanted to be a psychologist/counselor, and someone recommended that I go into teaching to gain some experience.  I followed that timely advice and fell in love with teaching students.  I count it a privilege and an honor to be a teacher.  I hope to inspire you to love English, love learning, and love people!
