Mrs. Gloria Russell To All Instructors

Hello. My name is Mrs. Gloria Russell. I am the wife of Dr. Jamie Russell, Sr., the founding and lead teaching Pastor of Nehemiah Community Church in Houston, TX. I am the mother of five adult sons, one beautiful elementary-aged daughter, and three adorable grandsons. I completed my Bachelor of Arts in Early Childhood and Elementary Education at Dillard University in New Orleans.  I also hold a Texas Childcare Director’s License. I taught in the public and parochial school sectors for nearly twenty years in various grades. I was a Middle school Math teacher for  8 years and served as the Math Department Chair. I developed and managed a summer enrichment program for my church during that time. Within the past 30 years, I have served as a Camp Counselor, Sunday school teacher, VBS Director, Praise & Worship Leader, Church Ministry Coordinator, Outreach Coordinator, and as the Children’s Ministry and Youth Director at the three churches I have been a member of at various times. I’ve been our daughter's primary homeschool instructor since kindergarten, and it has been stupendous! From August 2021 to December 2023, I had the fantastic opportunity to participate in a small Christian Co-Op with three other families, where I taught STEM and served as the Administrator. I enjoy assisting others in learning about Christ, and I love working with children to help them grow spiritually and academically.
