…I was determined to find a qualified teacher and a rigorous course. I selected Susan Gleason as their teacher. Her extensive experience in German language and culture has enriched our children’s education… The children worked hard to fulfill Susan’s high expectations, and so they learned a lot. Mrs. Gleason’s faith permeated every aspect of her teaching whether in pursuing excellence academically, or selecting German Bible verses, German sermons, and German music each week. The children knew they could trust Mrs. Gleason to teach them well, because they understood that she cared very deeply about their souls, character and German academics.
