Welcome to the KaiPod Gilbert Learning Pod

Welcome to Our KaiPod Gilbert Learning Pod

KaiPod provides flexible in-person learning for 3rd-12th grade. Our learning pods provide small group learning for up to 24 students with a 12:1 ratio. Whether you’re looking for support in your homeschooling journey, a space for your online learner to connect with a community of friends or an environment focused on your child’s unique needs, KaiPod is the place! We support you in designing a personalized education plan based on your family’s needs and interests. Our model adapts to your family’s needs, not vice versa.

Our KaiPod Gilbert learning pod is powered by self-agency, where students learn and celebrate ownership of their own success. Well-supported self-advocation strategies help students find their voice to ask for what they need and achieve their goals. Our pod values hard work, but schedules plenty of time for play. An intense game culture allows for socialization and relaxation in a semi-structured environment where kids can fine-tune their understanding of social cues, inclusion, and fairness.

Please use the below tabs to learn more about our amazing Learning Coaches, the pod’s calendar, pricing, and more.

KaiPod Gilbert Learning Coach Aubrey

Meet Learning Coach Aubrey

Aubrey joined KaiPod Gilbert in 2023 and comes to us from Mesa, Arizona. For over 6 years, Aubrey has been a science instructor, working with at-risk and neurodivergent students. A big believer in fostering curiosity, Aubrey encourages students to ask questions and make mistakes in a safe place. She has spent time working as a Special Educator/ Paraprofessional and a youth entrepreneurship mentor, which has taught her the importance of teamwork and social-emotional learning, as well as the economics of running a small business.

Aubrey began as a psychology/pre-med major in her undergrad, and is now highly qualified in vertebrate zoology and animal behavior, and holds a Bachelor’s of Science in Biological Sciences from Arizona State University.

When Aubrey isn’t keeping busy with​​ being a Learning Coach, you can find her experimenting in the kitchen or perfecting her beloved pickle recipe. She loves reading, swimming in the ocean, and learning more about animals and the incredible world we live in.

KaiPod Gilbert Learning Coach Anna

Meet Learning Coach Anna

Anna grew up in Kansas but moved to Arizona in 1987. She graduated with a B.S. in Recreation Management from Arizona State University and a baccalaureate in Early Childhood Education. Anna has been an educator for over 20 years and is passionate about helping students to love learning and become self-directed learners. She believes students are more motivated to learn when they have a sense of ownership and control over their own learning. Her goal is to provide guidance and support to learners as they work towards their own goals, planning and organizing their learning activities, and reflecting on their progress.

When not at KaiPod, Anna can be found somewhere outdoors-hiking, paddle boarding, running, camping, or playing pickleball.

Flexible Curriculum Options

At KaiPod, we support families and students with your preferred curriculum of choice. Whether you already have a homeschool curriculum or an online program that works well for your child, we'll provide the support they need at the pod! If you are transitioning from a traditional public or private school, we’ll work with you to create a customized education plan.

For most students, this includes a self-paced curriculum so your child can learn at their own pace, moving faster or slower based on their own understanding. These options may include accredited online schools, workbook-based homeschool programs, or something even more customized.

We also offer three optional academic programs at no cost — Zearn (math for grades 3-8), Lexia (literacy for grades K-12), and Map Growth Assessments. Watch the video below to learn more!

  • Open Door Policy
    At KaiPod Learning, we recognize that all students are unique and learn in different ways. Thus, we are committed to giving students the flexibility they need to maximize their learning experience. For this reason, KaiPod Learning operates on an “open door” basis. Each student may come as frequently or infrequently as they wish based on their enrolled plan. Students may come for a whole day, a partial day, or for various brief intervals throughout the course of a single day. It’s your choice. We are here to offer support when and if your student needs it.

  • Standard Enrollment Days

  • One Semester Commitment
    All KaiPod Learning enrollment plans are based on the local 36-week calendar and require a one-semester (five-month) commitment. If enrolling mid-year, there is a five-month commitment. After the one-semester or five-month commitment, enrollments may be cancelled with 30 days written notice.

  • One Month Happiness Guarantee
    We want to ensure that we’re a good fit for your family! KaiPod Learning offers a one-month happiness guarantee. This 30-day trial period offers the opportunity for each family to determine if KaiPod Learning is the best fit for them. It also allows our team the opportunity to evaluate and ensure that we have the resources needed to meet the needs of each student we welcome into our pods. Families who provide written notice of program termination within thirty (30) days of initial enrollment are waived from their one-semester commitment. Please note that the first payment of the chosen payment plan is due in full and is nonrefundable. After the initial 30 days or one-month happiness guarantee period, families are obligated to the one-semester commitment and remaining months of tuition.
