Tentang podcast ini
It’s time to ReDream Education!
My name is Makenzie Oliver. Microschool founder, VELA connector, educator, coach, and believer in the power of starting small, dreaming boldly, and rebuilding the future of education one courageous step at a time.
If you’re here, it’s because something in your life, your classroom, your family, your child, or your community, is asking for a new dream. A wiser dream. A ReDream. With ReDream Education, we challenge the old models, we rethink what learning can be, and we build innovative pathways for children, families, and communities.
In this weekly podcast, in our Facebook group, in our blog, and in our membership program, you will will gain systems, strategies, stories, and soul work you need to design personalized learning, understand how education is changing for the better, start or scale a micro-school, lead with confidence, make a change for your family, and create an education model that actually works for today’s world; because you aren’t just dreaming of something different - you are building it.
This is a place where we reinvision what school can be, reimagine how children learn, and rebuild the systems that were never designed to meet the needs of our future and current generation. With ReDream Education, we share insights, strategies, stories, and tools to teach our children better, transform learning at home, support innovative education models, and invest financially or personally in the future of students everywhere.
Because you aren’t just dreaming about a better education, you are part of the movement to create.
This is where the future begins.
