Skills To Be Successful in Life!

Prepare Your Child for the Real World

Uncommon Education’s powerful approach supplements traditional education to prepare individuals for the real world. Traditional education focuses on providing the skills to be successful academically, Uncommon Education supplements those skills with the ones needed to achieve financial success, fulfillment, and mental well-being.

We believe that we can work together with parents and educators so that our children understand the economic, governmental, and financial systems in place and can use their knowledge as an advantage when planning for their future. Our approach to education is based on real life experience, interactions, and current events as we believe in the power of real-life experience as a way of learning that can never be forgotten. This is why throughout our courses, your child will learn how to invest in stocks through practice with a simulator, they will learn how to create a real-life business plan, and learn about today’s economy and government through the study of real-world information and current events. More importantly, at Uncommon Education you will find a community of parents and children who are focused on the success and fulfillment of their children creating a wonderful network for our students. We are constantly finding innovative ways to teach and instill healthy habits in our students.

At Uncommon Education, our mission is to offer your child the supplemental education they need in order to not only succeed, but to experience true happiness and fulfillment. We are giving your child the tools to succeed at an early age, so they don’t have to work on discovering new ways of thinking later in life. After making financial mistakes they will pay for way into the future.

Research shows that there are nine proven factors that can accelerate success in your career and life:

  1. Education
  2. Skill
  3. Contacts
  4. Financial Literacy
  5. Good Work Habits
  6. Positive Mental Attitude
  7. Positive Image
  8. Creativity
  9. Character

Do not let your schooling interfere with your education
– Mark Twain

An Uncommon Approach

Out of the nine factors for success, school only covers education and sometimes, skill and contacts. Uncommon Education’s goal is to equip your child with all the other factors for success through our carefully designed courses that focus not only on lessons on emotional intelligence, self awareness, logic, financial literacy, entrepreneurship and other courses that are not normally offered in our schools , but also on teaching your child to question everything, to develop healthy habits, and to understand that success and happiness are subjective, that we are all different therefore our needs are not the same.

Uncommon Education is the education your child needs that is not being offered anywhere else.

Give your child the gift of success and fulfillment

What people are saying about Uncommon Education

We Love Uncommon Ed!!


Trustpilot
Maria provides a really comprehensive program that's so kid-friendly, that meets them right where they're at! She incorporates so many tools and techniques to engage and inspire them, opening their eyes to so many concepts they just aren't going to be exposed to in school: self love and self care, taxes, savings, and much much more. All explained in a really interactive way that's simple yet meaningful. My 9 year old really looks forward to the class each week. Highly highly recommend!!
- Alyssa Reaves

My family loves this program


Trustpilot
My family loves this program and believes in it. It's definitely something we needed. My kids have learned a lot about investing and managing their finances in just 2 semesters. I decided to open a custodial account for them after they asked me and I cannot believe I did not know about this sooner. I am glad my children will not make the mistakes I did as a young girl coming out of high school. Excellent program 100% recommend.
- Brenda Del Carmen

I took UE level 1 and LOVED it


Trustpilot
I am 11 years old and took UE level 1 and I really enjoyed the class. I think it helped me open my mind on certain subjects. I learned so much and definitely recommend for people to sign up for the class. My favorite thing about the class was learning more about self care, mental health, and positive mindset for success. I can’t wait to take Level 2.
- Luana Alegre

This program has been a blessing for us


Trustpilot
First of all, the teacher was incredible. My kids were lucky enough to have Agustina as their teacher for both of their classes. She is extremely sweet to the kids. She makes subjects like investments and banking really easy for kids to understand. My kids absolutely loved the class and asked me to take part II so I registered them for that as well. They are loving these courses. Oh! and almost forgot to mention I requested morning classes since my kids are homeschooled and they were happy to open new sessions for us. Could not be any more happy about this program. 10/10 recommend.
