Made by a parent, for every kind of learner

It wasn't a lack of ability. It was overload.

“When my eldest started secondary school, what I saw wasn't a lack of ability. It was overload. What helped was structure: knowing what mattered, in pieces small enough to hold on to.”

Lorel Chow, founder and parent of three

Lorel spent more than 20 years at a global energy and chemicals company, designing and improving complex systems. One lesson ran through all of it: a well-designed system expects variation and doesn't fail when the input isn't perfect.

At home she saw the opposite. Capable children struggled, not with what they were learning, but with how they were asked to learn it. Our Study Tribe is her answer for History: what matters, in what order, in pieces small enough to hold on to.
