    Classroom Teacher: Aubrey Heki

    McGovern Classroom Teacher

    Aubrey Heki

    BA, Patrick Henry College


    Aubrey Heki is a recent graduate of Patrick Henry College with a BA in Political Theory, a major that furnished her with ample opportunities to sharpen her skills as a writer.

    Through her studies, she has come to further appreciate capturing the beauty of transcendent truth through the written word. Prior to studying on campus in the fall of 2007, she spent two years in PHC’s Campus @ Home distance learning program, completing most of her required core courses online. Because of her experience as a distance-learning student, she is cognizant of the delight and challenge involved in replicating a “classroom” environment online.

    With two years’ experience as the Classroom Teacher for the AP English Language
    and Composition course, her passion is to equip students with the ability to formulate thoughts concisely, persuasively, and to glorify the Creator through writing. In previous years, she has taught and evaluated writing both in the classroom and online. While in high school, she gained classroom experience as a teacher’s assistant for a high school debate class. Additionally, she taught a junior and senior high writing class for homeschooled students, using writing curricula to develop the coursework. For one year, she participated as a writing mentor in PHC’s Writing Mentorship program, offering feedback to help students improve their writing.

    Aubrey resides with her husband, Jason, in Purcellville, VA. During her spare hours, she enjoys reading, running, hiking, making sundry crafts, and chatting with friends over a cup of coffee.

    Classroom Teacher: Tony Valdes, MA

    Valdes Classroom Teacher

    Tony Valdes

    MA, University of South Florida
    BA, Florida State University

    Tony Valdes is a graduate of Florida State University with a B.A. in Communications and University of South Florida with a M.A. in English Education. He spent two years working as an on-air host for a Christian radio station and is in his fifth year of teaching English at a Christian high school. His AP English Language students have consistently scored higher than the national average on the College Board exam.

    He trusted Christ as his Savior when he was twelve years old. Since then, he has taken great solace in Simon Peter’s exploits throughout the New Testament because he often identifies with the way in which Peter bumbles his way through a life of faith. Under the circumstances described in John 18, Tony believes he also would have chopped someone’s ear off for Jesus with the best of intentions.

    The Gospel has informed Tony’s pedagogy and worldview. He feels that apart from Christ education is virtually meaningless. He approaches his teaching with the belief that everything tells a story, every story makes an argument, and language is one of the many ways in which we reflect the image of God, the Master Storyteller. Furthermore, in a world where public communication has exploded to proportions of which Aristotle could have never dreamed, it is more important now than at any other point in history for young people to have an intimate understanding of rhetoric.

    Tony lives, teaches, and writes in Tampa, Florida. Although he has trifled with a legion of hobbies, he spends most of his free time reading, kayaking, doodling, and exploring. His sidekick, a black labrador retriever named Shadow, helps him keep things in perspective. Together, they hope to have an adventure like Indiana Jones one day.

Dr. Hake’s love and passion for literature were utterly contagious and exciting. The books Sarah read as a student in that introductory class (many of which are assigned in this AP course) were some of the most influential and eye-opening pieces of literature she ever encountered throughout her college education.

That position was in the radar tube (magnetron) R & D department designing military and commercial magnetrons and analyzing older models for failure modes. He then moved to Wavetek Rockland in northern New Jersey in their commercial frequency synthesizer design department. His work involved the development of a low noise voltage-controlled-oscillator for a broad band microwave synthesizer. That experience led him to KDI electronics in Whippany, New Jersey, where he continued to work developing military communications systems at microwave frequencies. In 1988, as the Cold War ended, he returned to graduate school to study Physics and begin a career in education. In 1994 he received his PhD in physics from Lehigh University with a specialization in polymer physics.

    Since then, he has taught physics, chemistry, and math in a variety of venues, including a private school in Annapolis, Maryland; Franklin & Marshall College; and Lehigh University. He has also developed an industrial electronics course and presented it to industry professionals around the country. Since arriving at Patrick Henry College in 2006, he has taught the core Physics course (including laboratory), Euclidean Geometry, and Statistics. Dr. Kucks finds that his industrial experience has been extremely beneficial in developing his teaching style and he enjoys looking for innovative ways to present challenging technical and scientific principles to students.

    McGovern Classroom Teacher

    Joanna Main

    BA, Patrick Henry College


    Joanna Main is a graduate of Patrick Henry College with a B. A. in Government-Public Policy (class of 2005). This is her second year teaching AP United States History with PHC Prep. She is thankful that teaching has given her a good excuse to spend extra time studying one of her favorite subjects. She enjoys being able to lead students through the process of using a Christian worldview to analyze our country’s history. As a homeschooled graduate, she understands the benefits and challenges of learning in a non-traditional setting. It is her desire to help students overcome these challenges and encourage them to be well-reasoned and articulate in a more traditional classroom setting.

    While completing her degree at PHC, Joanna interned for the National Center for Home Education and for Generation Joshua. After graduation, she continued to work for NCHE as a legislative assistant. These experiences, along with her coursework at PHC, afforded her many opportunities to improve her writing and editing skills. She is looking forward to providing assistance and feedback to students as they work to improve their own writing skills.

    Joanna currently lives in Thurmont, Maryland where she watches football and baseball games with her husband, homeschools a 1st grader, and keeps a 2-year-old out of mischief. She also enjoys running, eating ice cream, and finding a good deal.

    McGovern Classroom Teacher

    Juli Schuttger

    BA, Patrick Henry College

    Ever since Juli showed a fifth grader how to work a unit-conversion problem when she was seventeen, she has known that God has gifted her to teach. She has also known that her gift does not rely on her power—that same fifth grader got the problem wrong because of Juli’s dyslexia!

    A gift of teaching that is bare of content does no one good, so God also gave Juli a long list of hobbies and interests: handwork of almost every description, quilting, clothing design and construction, gardening, cuisine experimentation, music (Renaissance through some Romantic mostly, though she does enjoy bluegrass and melodic contemporary stuff like soundtracks), history, philosophy, theology, literature (nothing that flaunts itself as “modern”), and a little bit of politics.

    Juli is the oldest of seven. She currently lives with a family of twelve, minus the five who are married or working elsewhere, and teaches two of their teens at the part-time co-op run by this family. The post at PHC Prep Academy is her fourth teaching adventure.
