Say hello to Tanya! She’s not only a HomeLearners Network Guide, she’s been an educator for 26 years! She enjoys being a Guide at HomeLearners Network because it’s such an inclusive, supportive and imaginative space for children and youth to discover their passions and connect. Tanya started her journey as an educator in the Cowichan Valley School District as a classroom and learning support teacher. She’s also run her own tutoring business and has worked with SelfDesign Learning Foundation since 2009.
