For young people to grow up curious, strategic, and diligent in their studies.
Lael is the owner of Wild Rose Wonders. She teaches all of the classes for the business and has enjoyed tutoring in a variety of subjects from Pre-Algebra to Crochet! Helping others see beauty and wonder in the world is her passion.
She has two years of experience teaching an IEW writing class. After graduating from homeschool with an Associate's Degree in Biblical Studies, she spent a year studying permaculture. Additionally, she has continued to volunteer in children's ministries, including Good News Club.
Her educational model includes studying excellent literature, probing discussions, clear expectations for assignments, and hands-on activities. Lael's goal is that students become able to work independently and not depend on a teacher's assistance.
She dreams of getting married, fostering and adopting children, and running a farmstead.

Helping people, such as housekeeping, babysitting, or helping make decisions, brings joy to her life! Knowing that you’re happy makes her happy!

FAQS:
What is your worldview?
Both Allissa and Lael are evangelical Christians. However, not all of our classes are explicitly "Christian." You don't need to agree with our religious beliefs in order to enroll your students in our classes or use our tutoring services. Nevertheless, even in "secular" classes, though, Lael will ask students questions about the books they are reading to help them identify the authors' worldviews in order to help them develop their own opinions and discover truth.
Can your classes and tutoring be paid for with my allotment?
In many cases, yes! We are currently an approved IDEA vendor. We hope to get set up for direct billing and become approved with other charter schools, such as Matsu Central, in the near future. Our tutoring is fundable, and many of our classes are as well. However, you cannot use charter school funding for classes that have a Christian curriculum (these classes are marked as faith-based).
