WE ARE EDUCATIONALLY EMPOWERED.
Founded in 2020, amidst the challenges of the pandemic, Educationally Empowered is the culmination of a husband and wife team's unwavering dedication to transforming education. As extraordinary educators themselves, they keenly observed the profound need for support and guidance among their peers to navigate virtual teaching and close the growing achievement gaps that emerged. Motivated by the belief that proper preparation yields exceptional results, they embarked on a mission to create resources that would empower both novice and seasoned educators in assessing, documenting, and supporting students' academic journeys effectively.
From this vision, Educationally Empowered was born—a consultancy designed to equip educators with innovative tools and best practices tailored to the demands of modern classrooms. These resources not only facilitated student growth but also fostered a supportive environment where educators thrived. Encouraged by the positive impact of their initiatives, the founders resolved to expand their mission beyond their immediate community, aiming to reach educators, students, parents, and communities worldwide.
Today, Educationally Empowered stands as a beacon of educational excellence and empowerment, committed to advancing the field of education through comprehensive support and sustainable practices. By continuing to innovate and scale their efforts, they uphold their pledge to enhance the educational experience for all, demonstrating their enduring dedication to the betterment of education globally.
