Lynda Ann Price
Hello! My name is Mrs. Price. I will be teaching Eng II, English III and TSI exam review this year. I have two sons (18 & 20) who are super cool!
I have lived, studied and worked in a lot of countries. Ask me about it sometime! I moved to SATX the summer of 2020 from the North Georgia mountains.It’s beautiful! I have been teaching for a long time (2007)! I was a Special Education teacher in English, math, science and US History. I then became a humanities teacher (English and history together) at an international boarding school in Georgia. I love reading, yoga, hiking, being outdoors, and working with young people. This year, I look forward to guiding you into a greater understanding of the world you live in.
