What this looks like

Private Education Management Includes:

The result is not a collection of disconnected teachers, tutors, resources, and recommendations.

Who owns the whole picture?

A Different Model of Education

A private teacher can transform a child’s daily learning. Tutors and specialists can provide valuable expertise. An educational consultant can offer thoughtful recommendations…
But creating and sustaining an extraordinary private education requires someone to own the whole picture.
Northward brings the teacher, plan, people, resources, oversight, and long-term direction together into one coherent educational experience.

I cannot express how much I appreciate you all. Abigail is the most amazing teacher/person I’ve encountered in Sophia’s school career.

I could sing Ms. Abigail’s praise all day!

Davena has become part of our little family and one of Beckett’s favorite people on earth. From the moment she arrived, she’s taken such care to understand what works for him and to meet him where he is. She has instilled such confidence in him and made it so much fun along the way. We fully intend to keep her around through college!!
A parent on Samantha
A parent on Samantha
Samantha has been working with our daughter for a little over 3 years and she has been amazing. Our daughter now has more confidence and excels in ELA and Math. Best of all, is the way our daughter lights up when she knows she has a lesson with Samantha. Samantha has become like a member of our family and we are incredibly blessed to have her in our lives.

A parent on Maddie
A parent on Maddie
Maddie is AMAZING. She has helped my daughter really knock it out of the park for her freshman year in college. On top of making biology and algebra make sense, she has also been an incredible role model of what it looks like to work hard and give it your all. We adore Maddie and look forward to her continuing to support my daughter.

Mr. Tom believes in my kids more than any other professional has. He cheers them on even with the smallest wins. We are so lucky to have such a dedicated teacher helping our girls achieve their goals.
A homeschooling parent
A homeschooling parent
Starting homeschooling felt a little overwhelming at first, but it’s turned into such a positive experience for us. What’s made the biggest difference is having a teacher who really takes the time to meet my child right where they are… Suddenly math isn’t just numbers, it’s connected to things my child actually enjoys. Reading time feels less like a chore and more like an adventure.
