Ms. Rachel Tellers was born and raised in sunny southern California and moved to Tallahassee with her family back in 1994. When she came to Tallahassee she began her college education focusing on elementary education. She received a BA in Family and Child Sciences and Child Development from Florida State University in 2000 and then went on to receive a Masters Degree in Elementary Education at Florida A & M University in 2001. When she received her Masters she was already working as a 4th grade teacher at Betton Hills Preparatory School.
Ms.Tellers has always had an insatiable hunger for new experiences and eventually entered the world of visual merchandising which led her to get her license in Cosmetology and became a Master Stylist with Chelsea Salon & Spa. She ventured into the world of health and fitness and was “hamstrung” as a Certified Personal Trainer at Gold’s Gym. After that she continued on in her adventure into massage and those suffering with chronic pain. She became a Massage Therapist and received her L.M.T. License in Massage Therapy. Ms. Tellers then became a Chiropractic Assistant and assisted doctors with the various types of therapies. She is very talented at massage and many have sought her help with their ailments. Ms. Tellers has been able to heal many people with her out-of-the-box methods. As she worked in these various industries, she also pursued and earned a Masters Degree in Theology and then a Doctorate in Theology from Harvest Bible University at a satellite campus here in Tallahassee, FL with the headquarters in Los Angeles, CA.
She is excited to bring all of her experiences and love of learning to her scholars this year as a 2nd grade teacher. She believes that nothing compares to investing in the next generation as an elementary grade teacher at Tallahassee Classical School. That insatiable hunger she hopes will inspire her young scholar to pursue knowledge and greatness in this life.
