What are Homeschool Tutoring Services?
Homeschool Tutoring Services create an independent learning environment that reinvents the one-room schoolhouse where there are mixed-age level groupings. According to Microschool Revolution (2023) an educational space like AWE is described as "outsourced homeschooling," free from the bureaucracy, standardized tests, and mandatory curriculum that defines today's public school system. Environments like AWE are efficiently run, and student engagement is remarkably high. Additionally, these spaces focus on personalized learning and often employ innovative teaching methods, technology, and project-based learning experiences. They are often smaller in size than traditional schools, with a low student-teacher ratio and a focus on individual student needs and interests.
AWE's Philosophy
Explorers enrolled in the Microschool study core subjects, receive individualized learning plans, and are assessed through project-based learning, performance tasks, and online programs.
Mission:At AWE, individuals gain and fine tune the knowledge of STEM tools, tech, and social justice, in a space that encourages taking risks, making mistakes, and innovating. We establish engagement, support, and connections in STEM and to the local community while ensuring equity, differentiation, and accommodation to make the world a more equitable, viable, and joyful place to live.

Vision:AWE is a community that prepares explorers for careers in STEM and activism through project based learning, collaboration, and community connections.
