Sister Inez Andrews, born Inez McConico (April 14, 1929 – December 19, 2012) and better known as Inez Andrews, was an American gospel singer. Her soaring, wide-ranging voice — from contralto croon to soul-wrenching wail — made her a pillar of gospel music. The ''Chicago Tribune'' stated that "Andrews' throaty contralto made her low notes thunder, while the enormous range of her instrument enabled her to reach stratospheric pitches without falsetto" and that "her dramatic delivery made her a charismatic presence in church and on stage." Andrews started singing in the church as a child and performed gospel music on the road in various gospel groups from the 1940s before joining The Caravans in 1957.

Inez De Florio-Hansen
Inez De Florio (born 1943) is a German applied linguist and educational psychologist whose work focuses on science-oriented teaching and learning with particular reference to multilingualism and intercultural competence. She is a proponent of (qualitative and quantitative) empirical research. Above all, her critical view of evidence-based education leads her to a particular focus on individual aspects of teachers, learners and their learning contexts. In her introduction to ''Teaching and Learning English in the Digital Age'' (2018), she exemplifies how to implement digital media in foreign language classrooms. Furthermore, she shows that the rapidly increasing influences of digitization will inevitably lead to more internationalized and globalized research-orientated teaching and learning approaches. Recently, she has focused on newer teaching methods as well as different forms of feedback. Career After graduating from university, De Florio taught foreign languages at the seco ...
