Small Group Learning (SGL) describes a premium form of “concierge” education where families group together and hire a teacher directly to educate their children at a convenient location. Practiced in various forms by the growing number of Microschools, Pod Schools and Cooperatives across the country, an increasing number of families and education professionals are recognizing it’s effectiveness:

In Elementary Education, the vast majority of a child’s experience is dependent on the quality of their teacher. Small Group Learning unlocks tremendous value for families, by allowing them to competitively compensate teachers directly who otherwise could be teaching at private schools costing multiple times more!

With only 8-12 students to focus on, Teachers can actually personalize learning per child at a level that is just not possible within the typical, larger classes of even the most exclusive private schools.

Directly accountable to parents, teachers are highly motivated to do what is best to optimize outcomes for each of their students individually, rather than simply following some pre-set curriculum, pace and progression mandated by a central administrative group.

Historically, this model of education has required extraordinary time and financial resources from the families involved to organize, launch, and manage.
