LEARN MOREYou've come to the right place.
You're creating an in-person school but don't want to (or can't) staff it with conventional teachers. I can help you. This is my specialty and passion.
I'll help you accelerate your workforce preparation and ensure that you have a supportive society of friends.
Flex models empower students to self-direct their learning without depending on an in-person teacher to deliver each lecture or lesson. This disruptive innovation allows the teacher's role to shift from "sage on the stage" to "guide on the side." As you or your staff embrace this new teacher role, you will . . .
. . . unlock the magic of 1-on-1 coaching.
. . . find that differentiating instruction is simple and easy.
. . . leave behind teacher burnout and overwhelm.
. . . embed experiential learning into instruction.
. . . be living in integrity, knowing that your instructional model is advanced.
