Hands-On Learning
Traveling and homeschooling can provide exceptional educational benefits – there is nothing compared to learning about history where it actually happened or seeing the painting in person that you studied about the day prior. Our private educators are able to research your travel locations in advance and plan a customized educational itinerary for the children making the most out of each location.
Private Educator Rates
Our placement counselors will work closely with you to develop a competitive compensation package based upon your family’s needs.

Current rates for private educators are between $40-$100 per hour.
