I am the Founder/Owner of Diverse Interactive Learning Tutoring Center (Math Does Matter LLC), a tutoring center that ranked among the top three tutoring businesses in Allentown, PA in 2024. With a specialization in Mathematics Education, I bring over 20 years of experience in teaching, coaching, leading departments, and tutoring. In 2014, I was honored as the Outstanding Teacher of the Year by the National Technical Association for my guidance that led my female Muslim high school students to victory in a math competition at Morgan State University. My students created history by achieving the top positions in this competition for the first time, marking a significant milestone for female students in math. I enjoy supporting people in reaching their full potential. For instance, a teacher whom I mentored and guided for a year went on to be named Teacher of the Year for Baltimore City Public Schools the next year. Renowned as a skilled test coach, I help individuals pass professional exams. Beyond teaching, I have excelled as a virtual learning coach and a homeschooling mother. In my personal life, I am a devoted wife of 21 years and proud mother of 3 exceptional sons, who have all skipped grades in either preschool or elementary school, marking a significant achievement in my teaching career.

Nature Speaks..... with Founder, Rachel!!!!! 01 Aug 202400:52:17

Season 2- Episode 57

On this episode, Nature Speaks' Founder, Rachel shares her love for raising and nurturing horses, how important it is to learn self-sustainability, the benefits of horse manure, the healing capabilities that horses possess, the many programs they offer homeschoolers, and she gives us a tour of the farm.


https://www.nature-speaks.com/our-story.html


Nature Speaks was created from a very personal tragedy that changed who I am. While riding my leased horse Jazz, in the woods of Palm Beach Gardens, the horse collapsed underneath me  and I slid on my face in the sand where I landed superman style. When the horse stood back up she stepped on the back of my hand breaking my pinky finger in half. Three days later, while I was in and out of plastic surgery  to put my face back on in the hospital, Jazz was hit by lightning in her pasture and killed. I was devastated. Now in addition to my body being broken, my spirit was too! I cried for days.
​At the time I owned a public relations firm called NozNewz Communications, Inc. I represented businesses, non profit organizations and government entities in Palm Beach County for almost 20 years. 
During my recovery I read voraciously! The book that changed my life is called the Tao of Equus by therapist and horsewoman Linda Kohanov.  She writes about her experiences living with her herd of horses and using those experiences to help others through the practice of  equine therapy. I studied her model of equine therapy and  those of other practitioners but I felt a little empty. Equine therapy is ground work with the horse only. It does not include riding. But to me and the kids I wanted to work with, riding the horse is an important component to empowerment. So I created a life skills program called "Who's in Your Herd?" which teaches about making good decisions in life in a very simple way. Decisions which will affect the future path of a youngster and we use the horses as our facilitators/teachers assistants. As horses live in herds, so do people but our herds change throughout the day and throughout our lives. We use the  philosophy of taking care of the horses as a metaphor for taking care of oneself. 
So my future path became more clear and I took a risk by taking an equity loan out on my home and started Nature Speaks with the money. I knew that horses helped me in my recovery and I was desperate to share that with others who needed personal growth.  
Rachel Ibarra is an approved contractor for all Florida public schools and was a member of the Palm Beach County Sheriff’s Office COP Mounted Unit for five years. Nature Speaks offers western riding lessons, homeschool programs and field trips, Equine Assisted Learning workshops and summer and winter break activities.

The Gifted Learner.... with Homeschool Mom, Donna!!!! 21 Jul 202400:55:34

Season 2- Episode 55 On this episode, homeschool mom, Donna, shares her experience with raising her gifted daughter, how important it is to grow your child's emotional intelligence, the benefits of homeschooling gifted kids, the early signs she recognized in her child, how vital community is, and the advocacy she does for parents of gifted children. https://athenasacademy.com/ Donna Metler is a long time educator, at every level from infants to adults, whose greatest teaching challenge came when, to her horror, her baby hadn’t read the “normal child development milestones” and instead, chose to progress in their own, asynchronous, manner. This led to a journey of gifted/2e homeschooling which included starting interest based clubs and organizations, taking and teaching online classes, facilitating independent projects, attending international conferences with a teen presenter, locating outside mentors, and supporting a child attending early college. Donna currently teaches music at Singleton Community Center in Bartlett, TN, mentors and supports homeschoolers in the local community, and moderates and mentors junior instructors at Athena’s Advanced Academy, an Cognia accredited online program offering a la carte classes to meet the needs of gifted and 2e students. Donna’s workshops and 1-1 mentoring involve looking at a child where they are and figuring out a roadmap…while being ready for your child to light the roadmap on fire and throw it out the window at any moment, and enjoying the trip wherever it leads. Donna’s in person classes offer opportunities for children to engage joyously in music, regardless of neurotype.

Linda's Bio....

In my twenties, I became a Waldorf teacher. I taught first-graders how to read using a traditional phonics-based approach combined with Waldorf multi-sensory methods.Later, I became a reading interventionist and I put together my signature reading program, incorporating best practices from many different sources, including the latest research on the teaching and learning of reading.Interesting fact: I'm a "second generation" reading teacher. My father was a reading and writing teacher for over fifty years, and my sister teaches reading to ESL students. It is in the family!I currently study in the Master's Program in Literacy at the University of Cincinnati. My goal is to complete advanced research on reading assessment which will help differentiate different "types" of dyslexia. I have three children, a husband, and one cat, and my hobby is growing plum trees!

Unleashing the Artist- with Teacher & Author, Ruth!!!!! 04 Jul 202400:55:04

Season 2- Episode 50

On this episode, teacher, Ruth, shares the importance of making learning fun, the need to be able to effectively communicate an idea, her catalog of books, the long-term effects of social media, the value in trusting your kids, some of the life skills we should focus on building up in our kids, and ensuring that kids put more focus on the solution than the problem.

http://www.artbyruth.com/

Award-winning artist and author Ruth A. Douthitt has been drawing and writing since an early age. An Arizona native, she first was inspired by her fourth grade teacher to learn more about the fine arts and to make it her life's endeavor. Later, her high school English teacher entered her poetry into a contest that she won. Her art teacher gave her many challenging class assignments that helped her win two scholarships to study art in college.

She has had a one-woman show in New Bern, North Carolina where she and her husband were stationed with the USMC. It was there that Ruth developed a love of wildlife art and drawing animals. She did "pet portraits" while working at Ballantyne Framing & Art. She also was able to sell her watercolors there as well. Back in Arizona, she began painting portraits of children. First she started painting friend's kids and pets, but that grew into a business. Her commissions increased thanks to positive "word of mouth" reviews from clients.

Her clients range from Police officers, lawyers, and Superior court Judges to stay-at-home moms and grandmothers: all wanting realistic portraits of their beloved children or grandchildren. It was around this time that Ruth drafted a story she had in mind ever since her time in North Carolina...a story about dragons.

She completed her B.A. in Visual Arts from ASU and a Masters degree in Education from University of Phoenix. Ruth has taught art at Glendale Community College and is a member of the Arizona Watercolor Association. She finally had her first book published in 2011, "The Dragon Forest." Since then, she has had several more books released, including the 2017 Moonbeam Children's Book Award Bronze Medal award-winning "The Children" series. As an award-winning author of books for middle grade readers, Ruth decided to blend her art and her writing. She has illustrated many books: "The White Wolf," "Dragon Games," "Dragon Riders," and "The Road to Home." In 2023, she released her first coloring book! She plans on releasing many more...And, finally after 34 years in the making, she released her first picture book, "Peter and the Dragon Forest," with illustrations by her husband.

Protecting Your Greatest Investment..... with Author, Ashley!!!!06 Jun 202400:56:06

Season 2- Episode 44

On this episode, Author & Parent Coach, Ashley, shares her passion for assisting parents, her book "Protecting Your Greatest Investment", going against the grain and breaking parenting cycles, the importance of ensuring your children know they are loved, and how vital it is to learn about your child through conversation.


protectingyourgreatestinvestment.com⁠


My name is Ashley Jefferies and I am an author, speaker,parenting coach, wife, and mother to an amazing 11 year old son.  In my career as a speech-language pathologist, I have always enjoyed working with children and watching them succeed. Equally important, I have enjoyed working with various families, supplying them with knowledge and skills to help with their child’s development.


Later in life, I went back to school and received a second master’s degree in educational psychology. The knowledge I gained from my studies prompted me to write a book geared towards parents and caregivers of children that highlights the needs of children that sometimes go unmet and some of the potential consequences when important needs are not met. I have a passion for children, and I understand that setting children up for success later in life begins in the home. My desire is to assist parents in going beyond simply providing the basic needs of food, clothing, and shelter for their children. I want parents to meet the unspoken needs of their children as well.

Working in home health and Greenville County Schools as a speech-language pathologist has taught me a lot about the impact a child’shome life can have on future success.  It is vitally important that we asparents strive to provide a home environment that allows our childrento grow and flourish.  That is the reason I wrote the book Protecting Your Greatest Investment:  Investing in the Needs of Children and started Flourishing Futures: “Empowering Your Child for Lifelong Success,” a twelve-week group/individual coaching program for parents of children ages 5-12.  Through research and experience, I wanted to offer resources to assist parents as they navigate the challenges of parenthood and strive to provide the best possible home environment for their children to be successful.

Healing Trauma & Homeschooling..... with Michele!!!!!05 May 202400:54:11

Season 2- Episode 37


On this episode, founder of Uniquely Northern & 7Sisters Holistic Insitute, Michele, shares her passion for hypno-therapy and helping to heal trauma, the importance of incorporating fun and creativity into your life, homeschooling her son, recognizing the power of time with your children, and how she balances working and homeschooling.

Seven Sisters Holistic Healing Institute (sevensistersinstitute.com) UniQuely Northern Hypnosis - Live an Inspired Life! ™ I started working with children when I was in University at 25 years old, volunteering with Child Protective Services. Helping children see the possibilities in life has always been my passion. I was blessed to have a solid upbringing with lots of exposure to education, travel, and different cultures and experiences and wanted these opportunities to be available to all children. Though I graduated as a civil engineer, following in my father’s footsteps, my mother had a Master’s Degree in Social Work so I was always passionate about mentoring and sharing knowledge. The power of the mind fascinated me and I learned as much as I could about harnessing our innate power to create miracles in our lives.


During the 2008 financial incident, I adopted my son Jonathan at birth. This incident also allowed me the time to be a mother while studying hypnosis as a tool to harness the power of the subconscious mind. I trained and became a Master Hypnotherapist and was soon transforming people’s lives. Having been raised in Jamaica, I saw that the American culture did not promote a lot of the core values with which I was raised, such as self-reliance, a determination to be happy and succeed, and an appreciation for the simple things in life which make life such a rich experience. This inspired me to share these values with my community, which I have been proactively been doing since 2010.


The greatest gift which has come out of the 2020 incident is that humanity has returned to living in community. My son was home with me and we began homeschooling. I have always wanted to be the number one influence in my son’s life, so this was a dream come true. I believe that we are supposed to live in Truth, Joy, and Love in every moment of every day and I share these values with my international community through my nonprofit, Seven Sisters Holistic Healing Institute (https://sevensistersinstitute.com/ ).
