π About Rachel
Hi! My name is Rachel and I'm excited to meet you!
I've been an educator since 2001 with my Master's +30 in Education and Montessori Education. I've taught a wide variety of subjects and ages.
I'm a single-mom of a teenage daughter and we've been traveling full time since the spring of 2017. My daughter has been a radical unschooler since the age of 5 and a worldschooler since the age of 8. We love learning through our travels and experiencing all that the world has to offer. As an unschooling mom and a Montessori teacher, I have a lot of experience in Self-Directed Education. I definitely follow the Montessori philosophy of "Follow the Child" even in my Kubrio sessions.
