Little bit about Mrs.Rad
Hi! I'm Mrs. Rad, and I run Beyond Alphabets in Mission Viejo. As a dedicated educator with a BA and years of experience, I’ve taught art to students from preschoolers to adults and provided homework help for elementary and middle school students. Teaching is my passion, and I firmly believe children learn best when lessons are engaging, fun, and encouraging.
As both a mom and an experienced teacher, I understand the challenges children face with homework across a range of subjects—from math and social studies to algebra, calculus, and beyond—spanning kindergarten through 12th grade. At Beyond Alphabets, we are dedicated to helping children with their daily homework at their appropriate grade level.
I believe it's essential for each child to fully understand their lessons, a responsibility often shared with families. Our team of educated and experienced teachers provides personalized attention to every student, helping them build confidence in their tests and assignments.
The happiness and comfort of each child are our top priorities. We believe a supportive and welcoming learning environment encourages children to explore and enjoy learning.
As a mom, I also understand the challenges of after-school pickups and homework help. At Beyond Alphabets, we strive to make these tasks easier for parents by providing reliable services and a team of dedicated teachers who are ready to support your child’s success.
Teaching and supporting homeschool kids is a wonderful way to build connections with families through events and playdates. As an approved vendor with homeschool charters and offering Drop-In Care, I am always excited to add more engaging programs to Beyond Alphabets. It’s a place where every family can find fun, education, and growth for their kids. Beyond Alphabets is honored to welcome students from various charters.
In our Homeschool Enrichment programs, children from TK to 5th grade engage in learning all core subjects, along with art and Spanish. We provide age-appropriate curricula, worksheets, and hands-on activities to make learning engaging and effective.
