Rochelle’s Reading Rainbow
As a mom of four and a homeschool veteran of 13 years, I understand that every child learns at their own pace. What worked for one child may not work for another, and that’s okay. After teaching at Branches Surprise and Tandem Home Education, I’ve seen firsthand how tailoring education to each child’s unique learning style can transform the homeschool experience. I believe in making learning enjoyable, meeting kids where they are, and helping them thrive. Whether you’re just starting your homeschool journey or looking for new approaches, I’m here to help you create a learning environment where your child can truly flourish.
Gary’s Tutoring Service
As a dedicated tutor, I partner with each student to achieve real progress. My focus is on fostering confidence and skill development, making learning not only effective but also engaging. With patience, tolerance, and understanding at the core of my approach, I help students navigate challenges while keeping lessons interactive and focused on the 'why' and 'how.' In math, especially, understanding the purpose behind each concept strengthens problem-solving and creates lasting connections. Together, we can make learning both meaningful and enjoyable.

Hi, I’m Alicia McElrath, a passionate home educator of 11 years and a proud mom to four boys.
