Miss Rachel Burkey

Greetings!  My name is Rachel Burkey, and I am the 8th Grade Spanish teacher and PreK – 8th Grade Music Teacher. This is my 1st year at Saint Ambrose and my 6th year teaching. I completed my Undergraduate education at Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore, MD, where I received a Bachelor of Arts in German language and literature.  In addition to my German studies, I also devoted much of my studies to other languages, such as Italian and Spanish. I have also studied piano under Randall Faber, creator of the Faber Piano Series, and have spent much time studying voice around the country.  I also spend much of my time writing and recording original music, both sacred and secular.

Although a Nashville native, I am thrilled to be here in Brunswick, teaching and passing on our tradition of faith. I truly believe that the  education that children receive when they are young puts an indelible mark on who they become.  It is an honor to be a part of these children’s lives and to share in their journey of Faith.
