Meet Sarah and UnstoppABLE Seeds Education Services

Hello. I am Sarah Donegan, the teacher and therapist of UnstoppABLE Seeds. UnstoppABLE Seeds is a new educational program for students in Jacksonville, IL and the surrounding area who may have underlying issues that cause learning disabilities, have other conditions that hinder their learning processes, or need special one-on-one instruction.

In 2019 I created a similar program in Maryland and ran the program until the summer of 2024 when we relocated to Illinois. I started with 9 students in 2019 and it grew to 70 students and 14 teachers during the 2023-2024 school year. This program helped countless students who are now confident learners. I am very familiar with every aspect of assisting students with meeting their full academic potential.
My learning philosophy and research-based techniques are effective and can help any student succeed.

Experience:

I have worked with students with various learning disabilities for 26 years. I have taught in diverse settings including church, educational therapy, piano lessons, camps, private schools, tutorials, one-on-one sessions, substitute teaching in public schools, and homeschooling.
I have also been homeschooling for the past 18 years. I have served as a speaker and trainer for teachers in classrooms and churches. I offer encouragement and guidance to parents dealing with their children's needs.

Education:

I hold a B.A. in Youth Ministries from Pensacola Christian College and a Master of Educational Therapy from Southeastern College. I am also a Certified Dyslexia Specialist, PCTA certified, and Orton Gillingham trained, all of which serve as testaments to my expertise and credibility in the field.

About Me:

• My husband and I have been given four amazing children to raise. All have left the nest except for the youngest.

• My favorite Bible verse is Jude 22, which states, "Some having compassion, making a difference."

• I have been a crafter for a lifetime and love to garden. I also like to read missionary biographies and am addicted to chocolate.
