Escape the State: Travel the 50 States

NEW CLASSES COMING SOON!!! 

New classes starting in September 2024...

Hello and welcome! My name is Judy and I am excited to meet you and share my love of learning with your children.

My educational background includes a B.S. in Geology with a concentration in Engineering-so extra heavy on the sciences and upper level math. I've worked in both the public and private sectors and as a field geologist and project manager and I currently have my own business. Some of my work includes regulatory compliance of Underground Storage Tanks, Environmental Site Assessments and reports, groundwater monitoring, Stormwater Pollution and Prevention Plans, Spill Prevention Plans for aboveground tanks, and monitoring contaminants in soil. Of course, that is not an exhaustive list but it is a good representation of the broad field work I have done in my career. 

I have conducted field research as a Geologist and have presented my findings at several Geological Society of America conferences. Further, I am a member of several professional organizations to continue my own education in this field.

ESL is also a passion of mine. I enjoy teaching English to others and helping them to succeed at their goals. It has really allowed me to meet a lot of fun and interesting people around the world. I am TEFOL certified and have taught ESL learners of all ages for the last 6 years.

I am a homeschooling mom of two and we are beginning our 4th year. I am really passionate about making sure that my children (and yours) have all of the tools they need to succeed in life. My children were both born prematurely and we have had quite the educational journey from physical and occupational therapy to ADHD.  I enjoy teaching children who think outside the box and love to explore their surroundings. Outschool is the perfect platform for that. I have had the very best students to work with here and you can rest assured that your child is learning the same material I would teach my own. It is important to me to show children their abilities and their positive attributes and build on that. 

You'll find a variety of different classes here-mostly science- but I do teach some math, reading, and an occasional elective class, as well as ESL. I enjoy working with students of all ages and feel very comfortable in this environment. If you are a parent looking for a little bit of enrichment for your child to cement what they are learning in school or if you are a homeschool parent, I can help take the load off and I will do everything I can to make your child feel important and valued in my classes. 

In our free time, my family enjoys all things outdoors such as horseback riding, hiking, rock and mineral collecting, or just playing in a big field. We love nature and all of its wonders. 

If you have any questions about classes or scheduling please reach out to me. I am always willing to work with you on setting up a class that works for you. 

Thanks for stopping by and I hope to see your child in some of my classes!
