Teachers

Hi, my name is Bryanna Farina. In California, I was a behavior therapist, advocate, and academic tutor for kids with autism and other disabilities. I have 17 years of experience, and I specialize in relationship development to help a child reduce anxiety, gain confidence, and create long-lasting relationships. Also, I have specialized in academic modification to create a program that nurtures a child’s strengths while also working on their weaknesses.  

Since moving here in 2021, the Lord has led me to teach classes that embrace and accept any child. He has led me to God's word, and no matter a child's weaknesses, it is His love and strength that will equip them to live out His will and purposes for their lives. Love never fails!  

I have a background in teaching Bible studies, MPact Girls, and Sunday school. I also homeschool my four children, who are ages 2, 7, 11, and 13. This will be our  9th year of homeschooling. My heart has grown for missionaries, and I believe that God has a plan for everyone to be used for His glory. As a family, we have been studying God's word and missionaries as part of our homeschool curriculum. 

In the 2021-2022 , 2022-2023 school years, I was a teacher at Independent Learning Academy, and I am so excited to be teaching at Ethos Academy this coming 2023-2024 school year!  I couldn't be more excited. My students call me Ms. B. 🙂 

I attend Calvary Chapel Treasure Valley. There I teach Sunday school, and I am a leader for the youth ministry (junior high and high school). 

I love reading, baking, gardening, and the outdoors! 

I look forward to meeting and getting to know all that the Lord brings to my classes.
