The "Airbnb" of Education!
You’re most likely aware that many parents lately are choosing to homeschool for
various reasons, (which is AWESOME) – and actually, the number of documented
homeschoolers from 2019-2021 rose from 2.5 million to 5 million! And estimates say the
actual number is closer to 9 or 10 million?!? Woah!
That means that half of these homeschoolers are completely new to the world of
homeschooling, and many of them don’t know where to begin or how to get started.
They want not only help getting organized, but also supplemental classes and groups to
make homeschooling fun.
On the other hand, there are so many people in our communities with talents and
abilities that are going to waste, and topics they are passionate about that are waiting to
be showcased. We want to capture these lost arts before they become lost for good!
Toodley takes skilled people + homeschoolers and merges them on one AMAZING new
platform! Our vision is for every home to become a place of learning, where groups of
students come together to experience the joy the learning from someone who is
passionate about the topic.
We created the ‘one-stop-shop’… service providers can post listings to host a group,
event or session – and homeschool parents then browse the categories of listings, so
that they can find friends, enjoy learning about their favorite topics, and make their
educational journey amazing!
How do we do this, you ask?
Toodley Hosts lead groups and sessions in categories such as:
Extracurricular Activities (sports, drama, clubs, hobbies, extra fun stuff!)
Essential Subjects (math, science, English, all core subjects)
Arts &; Music (colors and sounds, right this way)
Field Trips (museums, hiking, adventures beyond the desk)
Trade Classes (engineering, tech, jobs that never get old)
Life Skills (cooking, budgeting, home repair, preparing for life)
We also have special categories for Coaching & Consultation and Special Needs
Services. Hosts can offer advice and organization for homeschooling parents and also
targeted help for learning differences.
We believe that kids will learn more by doing hands-on activities together in-person, but
we also have online classes as well – a perfect bridge for anyone who wants to do
either Online or Offline and One-on-one or Groups. The heart of Toodley is all about the
live, in-person groups, however. We are the only online platform with this focus!
Affordability, ingenuity, and creativity are found at the center of most homeschool
families. By offering groups on our platform, the cost per student can be kept low and
reasonable, while the host earns a nice amount when multiplied by 6-8 or so kids in
their class or event.
And if you’re a homeschooling family already doing fun activities for homeschool
learning, it makes so much sense to add more students for a few hours each week to enjoy learning together – and the parents earn extra income (for classes they’re already
teaching their kids) by charging that small fee per extra student.
Speaking of income, on Toodley, hosts set their own rates and availability for whatever
dates and times they choose. We don’t require degrees or certifications (although those
are great too!) – lived experience counts for so much, and teaching a topic you are
passionate about to kids in your community can be so fulfilling.
We believe that no matter who you are, Toodley is for you.
Are you looking for somewhere your kids can go and get connected with other kids who
love learning?
Perhaps you love the idea of assistance with a specific subject or topic that you want
your kids to learn such as math, or physics, or playing a guitar?
Maybe you are loving the journey of homeschooling your kids and would like to lead a
group that includes other kids studying the same topic you are enjoying… and earn
money for it!
Whether you are an artist, musician, dancer, carpenter, mechanic, engineer, electrician,
home chef… You can choose a few hours at your convenience to teach the kids in your
community on the topics that you are passionate about, imparting skills and knowledge
to the next generation.
Have we convinced you yet? Don’t just take our word for it – get started today to see it
for yourself. Right now, we the Toodley founding team are personally walking people
through the simple process of signing up as a host on Toodley and helping create FREE
custom listings for their homeschool-related services.
Please feel free to reach out to us at hello@toodley.com with any questions, we are
happy to answer!
