AANS Curriculum

We are two teachers and school admin who have over 25 years of combined teaching experience in both public and private sectors. From tutoring, 1-on-1 teaching, pandemic teaching pods, and full class settings in higher education in both urban and rural locations, we've taught in virtually every context. We've also worked with an impressive range of learners with unique learning profiles and understand the importance of individualized learning plans regardless of classroom size.

What sets us apart from other shops is our combined range of content knowledge. From middle school ELA to Honors Calculus, from test prep to college composition, we bring a wide range of content knowledge to our resources.

Both of our classrooms are student-centered spaces that encourage collaborative learning and curiosity. Our area of expertise is in small group settings, so we aspire to design creative, interactive lesson plans that make room for student experimentation and choice.
