Hello

Hi, I'm Linda!

Here's the truth. I am a child. I am curious like a child. I need to explore and touch and figure it out using my senses.  If I see a path, I need see where it goes and what treasures it could lead you to. I ask why or why not about everything. My treasures are the sticks, feathers, rocks, and seeds I find in nature.  I love getting messy. I love experimenting and seeing what will happen if.... I don't like to sit much, although I am being challenged to sit more while my hips heal, and I generally don't want to read about it but I would rather experience it for myself.   "Just let me do it myself." Does that sound familiar?

I love learning and I love teaching and I get Kids.! I identify with their curiosity, creative commentary, energy, need to move or to sit quietly. I meet kids and adults where they are iin their learning journey. Being neurodiverse, I have a unique perspective when it comes to learning and teaching. I know we can all learn something from one another and that inspires and excites me. 

As a homeschool mom, artist, educator, and nature enthusiast, I’m always searching for and  discovering new ways to grow and learn alongside my son. My thirst for knowledge and 'understanding' has not only helped me find unique resources but also ignited a spark in me for connecting people and building vibrant, supportive communities. I love to network!

While I have a Bachelor of Arts in Multicultural Education, certification as a Cosmetology teacher, and recent training in culinary arts,  I find my personal experience is what sets me apart from others.  I have been "teaching" since I was a teen.  My mission is simple but powerful:  to empower children to become authentic, confident, and compassionate adults by making learning fun, engaging, and accessible. My goal is to create an environment and community where every child feels supported and seen, no matter the subject, setting, ability, or challenge they face, while also fostering kindness and empathy toward others.
