The Heroic Journey
Embark on an epic adventure of imagination & discovery!
Kids will dive into the world of stories, learning to think critically and creatively as they explore what makes a hero’s journey. Through engaging discussions and fun exercises, kids will analyze characters, challenges, and choices—both in stories and in themselves. Each child will chart their own heroic adventure by designing a unique pathway treasure map, mapping out goals, dreams, and the steps to reach them.

1 Your Guide
From the time I lined up my stuffed animals to teach them lessons in science, drama, and fun, I knew learning was an adventure. This learning adventure has taken me from teaching English and Psychology to learners ages 5 to 75 in Canada and Japan, to raising two amazing daughters who were also SelfDesign learners. Along the way, I share my life with two furry allies - Jasper the yorkie-poo and Beauty the tabby - who keep our world lively. I believe education is a call to adventure: a chance to explore ideas, stories, and creativity in ways that connect mind, body, and soul. As one of your guides, I look forward to walking beside you as you discover your own heroic path.
A fun fact about me is that I love to propagate plants. I have plant cuttings in glasses of water all around my house, and I am fascinated by watching their roots grow.
