Back in 2003, I was a burnt out brick and mortar private school teacher looking out across my classroom into the bored glazed eyes of fifteen 3rd - 5th graders sitting in rows of desks while I dragged them through another year's curriculum someone else chose for us. ​

At the end of the school year, I looked down at my students report cards and the figurative "bloody mess" results from some of my students who couldn't quite pass the year. I had to unfortunately "fail" some of them and keep them back another year. I realized that I had to find a better way. ​

"Test prep more!" ​

Just. No.

With the "rules" of education constantly changing, I begged, "where's the joy of learning found in all of that?" I got frustrated by the amount of work I put into my teaching compared with the learning results I saw in my students dreaded report cards, which I grew to loathe.

In 2017, I decided there had to be a better way, and thus, NatureGlo's eScience home and school educators online math and science unit study (thematic unit) courses and curriculum was born. It's jargon-less open and go PowerPoint lessons for educators and child self-paced online unit study courses (best for ages 8+) facilitated by me, NatureGlo, here we go!

If you're a time-strapped homeschool, unschool, or school parent whose kiddos LOVE learning science and nature and you want a facilitator/tutor to guide them, you're in the right place!

If you're a teacher that has gotten frustrated trying to stuff every child into one-size-fits-all curriculum, teaching to the test, or, you're tired of teaching that same old boxed curriculum year after year, I've been there too. You're in the right place!
