Welcome to my website!
This is my 24th year in the teaching ministry. Prior to teaching at
Bloomington Lutheran School I taught second grade at Living Hope Lutheran in
Shakopee/Savage; second through fourth grade at St. Matthew's Lutheran
School in Oconomowoc, Wisconsin; and third and fourth grades at St. Andrew's
Lutheran School in inner city Chicago. Over the years I've been privileged
to coach all sports in grades 5-8 and direct a Junior and Senior Choir as
well.
Prior to teaching I worked for several years at The University of Notre Dame
where I worked with famous athletes like Joe Montana, Bill Lambeir, Vegas
Ferguson and Kelly Tripucka. My boss was the fencing coach so I met alot of
people in those six years. I also worked for a photo typesetting/print shop
company for a year to supplement my income. Then I went to college.
My education includes a BS degree with a music minor from Dr. Martin Luther
College in 1986 and a Master's Degree in Teacher Leadership from Silver Lake
College in 2001. I've also had several student teachers over the years, and
I continue to take graduate courses to keep current in the educational field.
My hobbies include singing and playing the guitar, photography, electronics
and doing yard work. I have a BishPoo which is a Bishon and Poodle mix. Her
name is Jasmin and she is only a couple of months old.
Teaching is my life. I put my heart and soul into everything I do. I welcome
the opportunity to teach the kids more about Jesus so we can grow together
in our faith.
I look forward to meeting you someday and even working with you and your
child if it's your desire. Email address: bauder1957@msn.com
