Hi!  My name is Karin Holley, and I am one of Journey's ESL teachers.  This is my 7th year teaching ESL in Alabama and my 3rd year with Madison City Schools.  ESL is a passion of mine because I grew up in two different countries, Kenya and South Africa.  I spent most of my school years overseas with a very different type of school system.  I completed my undergrad at Tennessee Temple University and the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga.  I also have my Master’s degree in Curriculum and Instruction with a concentration in ESOL from Middle Tennessee State University.  I am married to Jeremy, and we have three kids attending Madison City Schools.  I love my job and I love your kids!  Go Jags!
