How have we served over 6,000+ kids?
By teaching them the things they care about the most. 🔥
My name is Adam Scott and I'm really glad you're here. I spent 15 years teaching at elite private schools around the US, and since leaving the classroom have leveraged my passion for teaching to become a successful entrepreneur both on and off of Outschool. I'm currently the CEO of an education and entertainment company that has worked with over 10,000 clients world wide (on and off Outschool). Our team has over 100 personnel serving amazing families.
RPG Club is our company's gaming division, and we fuel your child's long-term creative and life skills needs through tabletop roleplaying games (TTRPGs)🚀🎭 We meet kids right where they are "at", then support them as they grow. We've all done this professionally (in the real world), so it comes easily (just take a look at our reviews).
ASED is my personal line of academic courses. I'll help your student's achieve through accessible, 'first principles' oriented coursework, that helps them 'own' the skills from each lesson through targeted application.
I personally run a variety of academic courses in Financial Literacy, Entrepreneurship, History, Current Events, and Philosophy. I've also brought on a team of veteran classroom educators who partner with me and run amazing D&D campaigns (many of them for years). 📚🧠
Our Outschool team has over 100 years of classroom teaching experience, and we're excited to serve your family.
What's the "secret sauce?"
With respect to roleplaying, most of our students catch "the bug" after their first taste of RPGs. Many embark on a years long passion for their newfound interest, just like me when I was a kid.
Overall, I've been obsessed with the content we teach for over 30 years. I'm glad you're here. 🤓
