Mrs. Paula Nothstine To All Instructors

Hello SALT parents and students! My name is Paula Nothstine. I’ve been married to my husband, Lance, for nearly 28 years. We were married in the middle of a blizzard in South Bend, IN (Notre Dame). God blessed us with 2 sons and the younger one, Tyler, graduated from SALT in 2025. He is now thriving as an electrician and is very involved in his church.

My teaching journey began after graduating from Bethel University in Indiana with a degree in English. I felt that God had called me to the foreign mission field and teaching English was an easy way to get into closed countries. I taught ESL (English as a Second Language) to foreign college students at Indiana University and then I spent 5 years in Asia, teaching college students who were majoring in English, while sharing my faith with them whenever possible. We returned to the US, our boys were born, and I transitioned to working from home as an executive resumé writer.

God has always been at the center of our decisions, including our move to Florida in 2016 and the transition to homeschooling, which began when our boys were in 5th and 2nd grades. There were challenges, of course, with me working from home full-time. SALT enabled us to effectively homeschool through Tyler’s high school years.

I love the classics – the Great Books – and historical fiction. My other loves are classical music, beachcombing for shells, and baseball (Chicago Cubs!).
