Class Experience

This class is taught in English.
Teacher Lili (she/her):  
Lili’s current homeschooling class-of-one is exceptionally lucky to have such a dedicated teacher all to herself.  Lili, an ADHD adult, earned her Bachelor’s degree in Early Childhood Elementary Education in the  Dominican Republic before later earning her Master of Arts in Education from the University of Alabama Birmingham.  She brings to our classroom years of experience in a variety of classroom settings, including a dual-language immersion middle school program.  Lili’s learners can expect her to cheer their successes and support them through their struggles.  She’s passionate about interest-led learning and loves to dive into a unit study!

Teacher Kate (she/her):  
Kate is an ADHD adult who is an accomplished film-maker and passionate bookworm.  She has taught learners between the ages of 2 and 15 abroad in both Germany and Japan.  Kate has a wide foundation of teaching experience from teaching middle schoolers to teaching English as a second language in Tokyo.  She varies her teaching style to meet learners where they are and modulates her approach to suit all neurotypes.  She brings a sense of calm to the classroom that provides an ideal environment for learners to thrive.  Her teaching style is clear, passionate, and supportive.  

Hannah (she/they) began her teaching journey in 2014 with Austin ISD, where she initially focused on afterschool academics. Their role involved teaching English at the elementary school level, specifically geared toward preparing students for the STAAR standardized test. As Hannah's experience grew, they expanded their teaching repertoire to include math instruction and developed their own curriculum for art. 

Tiffany (she/her) brings to our Hub of Curiosity classrooms an incredible and varied background in education.  Before joining us, she led ESL classes aboard an Around-the-World NGO cruise and taught upper-low income students in the USA, Tiffany blends creativity with intellectually stimulating journeys in her teaching style. Her open neurodivergent outlook on life and education, as a whole, empowers her to foster connections with students from diverse backgrounds and tailor lessons to each individual need. Tiffany has a B.A. in English with a concentration in Grammar/Linguistics, is certified in Diversity, Equity and Inclusion, and is a certified TESOL/TEFL teacher.
