So you are considering the possibility of opening a microschool, but you’re thinking about the financial aspect of things! What if I don’t get enough students? How do I find the families who need my service? How can I start saving money in order to walk away from my current teacher career?
In today’s episode, I share a very IMPORTANT idea that will help you get into motion to start your school, while also making some extra money on the side- and finding your future students! We must focus on ways families can build relationships with us. They must KNOW us, LIKE us and TRUST us, in an effort to join our hands and say “YES” to your offer! These 4 ideas will help you start where you are and give you the confidence (and money) to keep going!
Let Your Light Shine,

In today’s episode, we are addressing the hard cold truth of what’s really happening in public school. The issues you face that weigh you down and make you question your longevity in this career. How much longer can you take living a life full of worry, anxiety, overworking, or burnout? Will all of the dreaded nights, hard mornings and endless talk of problems continue to be a part of your life for the next (fill in the blank) years?
In today’s podcast, we discuss the issues we face and how we can fall madly in love with teaching again- and on our own terms!

I hear it all of the time, "I have no idea where to begin"! And trust me, I get it. Clarity takes time. Knowing what you want, how to get it...it all takes concentration, deliberate motions and specific tactics.
Working through the unknown can be messy. Changing your careers and working towards a lifestyle pursuit can feel lonely, big and confusing. But here's the truth. You're capable. You just need a push, permission and a purpose.
So in today's episode, I discuss 3 tangible steps you can take to get more information, work through the questions, get a jumpstart on your teaching business and accomplish small goals along the way!

Well, today I have such a blessing to share with you. There is enough money for your idea. You just don’t know about it yet. In today’s episode, I’ll be sharing ONE of the several ways you can find a financial solution to your idea.

It’s time to ReDream Education!
My name is Makenzie Oliver. Microschool founder, VELA connector, educator, coach, and believer in the power of starting small, dreaming boldly, and rebuilding the future of education one courageous step at a time.
If you're here, it's because something in your life, your classroom, your family, your child, or your community, is asking for a new dream. A wiser dream. A ReDream. With ReDream Education, we challenge the old models, we rethink what learning can be, and we build innovative pathways for children, families, and communities.
In this weekly podcast, in our Facebook group, in our blog, and in our membership program, you will will gain systems, strategies, stories, and soul work you need to design personalized learning, understand how education is changing for the better, start or scale a micro-school, lead with confidence, make a change for your family, and create an education model that actually works for today's world; because you aren't just dreaming of something different - you are building it.
This is a place where we reinvision what school can be, reimagine how children learn, and rebuild the systems that were never designed to meet the needs of our future and current generation. With ReDream Education, we share insights, strategies, stories, and tools to teach our children better, transform learning at home, support innovative education models, and invest financially or personally in the future of students everywhere.
Because you aren't just dreaming about a better education, you are part of the movement to create.
This is where the future begins.
