About

Many students struggle not because of ability — but because of a lack of consistency between school and home. At school, they learn Growth Mindset: mistakes help you grow! At home, they may hear, “Why did you make that mistake?” (Parents like me did not grow up with Social Emotional Learning.) Two opposite messages. One confused child. According to a CASEL’s National Teacher Survey, 81% of teachers say home reinforcement is the missing piece for schools that have already implemented SEL. That’s one of the reasons I started Hoppity Learning — to bridge the gap between school and home. Over the past 4+ years, we’ve helped families build EQ tools for emotional regulation, motivation, and stronger relationships. 93% of families report positive behavior changes and 97% report closer connections. Recognized as a Silicon Valley Business Journal Women of Influence. Hoppity Learning also received a Behavioral Health Community Hero Award (County of Santa Clara). If you're a school leader, counselor, or parent looking for real, lasting change — let’s connect to strengthen student motivation, behavioral health, and family engagement.
