Our Team

Lynne Welsh

Lynne Welsh is a Co-Founder of Bucks County Online Learning Support.  Lynne has two daughters who are high school aged so her family has also been catapulted into online learning. Lynne added a homeschooling component to her therapy practice (Lynne Welsh Therapy & Associates) 5 years ago for children with mental health issues who needed to be homeschooled. Ellen Cuthrell and Carley Zarzeka have been working alongside her as homework coaches for her clients. Once Lynne began hearing cries of panic and overwhelm from parents in her community about being catapulted into online learning, she began to think about this concept. Using the experience and model from her practice and motivated by the  immediate need for this service at this time in our country and our world, this concept came to life. See “Our Story”.
