Beacon Literacy's 2009 Instructor of the Year

Beacon Literacy announced Friday its third annual recipient of Instructor of the Year.  This award is presented each year to a Beacon Instructor who demonstrates a commitment to the Beacon Literacy Remedial Reading program, achieves or exceeds  expected goals when working with students, maintains active communication with Beacon Literacy regarding student gains, student needs and program concerns, and strives to improve his or her working knowledge of the program. 
The 2009 Instructor of the Year award has been presented to Mrs. Margie Anderson of the Literacy Council of Sumner County (LCSC).  Mrs. Anderson has been using the Beacon system for over ten years and consistently achieves or exceeds expected gains with her students.  Mrs. Anderson works very closely with her students, maintaining a real connection with their lives and always strives to ensure that her students receive the very best and most appropriate interventions, whether that is through Beacon or other methods.  Mrs. Anderson also works very closely with Beacon on several other projects and has assisted us in ensuring that we are able to provide the very best interventions to our students, as well.

 

Mrs. Anderson is the youngest of six children from a small town in South Central Illinois.  She and her husband of thirty one years, Steven, have two children, David and Matthew.  In her free time, Mrs. Anderson enjoys gardening, bird watching and spending time with her friends and family.  A resident of Hendersonville since 1986, Mrs. Anderson has been with the LCSC for twenty three years and has had a tremendous impact on the lives of countless children and adults in the area.  Her favorite part of her job?  Working with students, of course.  Mrs. Anderson enjoys getting to her students and watching them grow, learn, and acheive their goals.
We at Beacon are proud to call Mrs. Margie Anderson a member of our team and would like to take this opportunity to thank her for her commitment to us, to Hendersonville and surrounding community, and especially to her students.  Thank you, Mrs. Anderson, for all you do, and may your future be blessed.
