Eben Heasley

Lead Teacher, Third Grade

Eben Heasley has a BA in Cultural Anthropology and studied Elementary Education at UNCA. Prior to coming to Evergreen in 2003, he had been independently tutoring students in a range of subjects within the Asheville area. He spent three years providing backcountry education for the Appalachian Mountain Club and thru-hiked the Appalachian Trail in 1995. A self styled musician, writer, thespian, board gamer, outdoorsman, carpenter, cook, candle-maker, husband, father, and oh yes, elementary school teacher, he has his fingers in more pies than he can truly appreciate the flavor of.

“If you keep walking while doing the simran [remembrance of the destination], the destination will come to you by itself.”
