Our Learning Coach
Alison Parrott
Hello, my name is Alison Parrott, and I have been a certified public school teacher since 2006. I am excited to help families start a new endeavor in education, where homeschool and private school meet. I have a Master’s Degree in Education, and I hold state teaching certifications in Idaho and California. My passion is collaborating with families to create the best learning environment possible for their students.
I was born and raised in Northern California. I took a 7-year detour in sales before having a traumatic boat accident that motivated me to follow my dream of joining the rewarding field of education. I am so glad that I followed my dream! I earned a Bachelor's degree in Communications from California State University in Sacramento in 2003 and a Master's degree in Education from the University of Phoenix in 2005. I hold K-8 multiple-subject teaching credentials in Idaho and California. I am so grateful for my decision to relocate my family to the great state of Idaho in 2015! We love it here!
I have been married for 18 years and am a proud mother of a teenaged daughter and an elementary-aged son. I enjoy learning and teaching, serving Jesus and others, spending time with my family and pets, reading non-fiction, studying trends in education, and playing and teaching piano.
I am highly experienced helping middle school math students and teaching ESL, and I love teaching all students about all subjects! I also enjoy creating enrichment classes, like coding and robotics, American sign language, ethnic cooking, piano, theater, digital citizenship, financial literacy and social skills, such as conflict resolution and empathy. We will explore and develop your child’s unique interests to make him/her a life-long learner too! My passion is to motivate and edify youth to love God and love learning as much as I do.
