Pods led by coaches with self-directed education experiences. Help your child boost their confidence, become an independent learner, develop healthy learning habits, and make friends worldwide.

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.
