KaiPod Learning in Gilbert, Arizona

Welcome to KaiPod in Gilbert.

KaiPod opened our Gilbert location in August 2022. Led by Learning Coaches Aubrey and Anna, our Gilbert pod is powered by self-agency where students learn and celebrate ownership over their own success. Well-supported self-advocation strategies help students find their voice to ask for what they need and achieve their goals. Our pod values hard work, but schedules plenty of time for play. A strong game culture allows for socialization and relaxation in a semi-structured environment where kids can fine-tune their understanding of social cues, inclusion, and fairness.

Please use the below tabs to learn more about our amazing Learning Coaches, the pod’s calendar, pricing, and more.

Meet Learning Coach Aubrey

Aubrey joined KaiPod Learning in 2023 and comes to us from Mesa, Arizona. For over 6 years, Aubrey has been a science instructor, working with at-risk and neurodivergent students. A big believer in fostering curiosity, Aubrey encourages students to ask questions and make mistakes in a safe place. She has spent time working as a Special Educator/ Paraprofessional and a youth entrepreneurship mentor, which has taught her the importance of teamwork and social-emotional learning, as well as the economics of running a small business.

Aubrey began as a psychology/pre-med major in her undergrad, and is now highly qualified in vertebrate zoology and animal behavior, and holds a Bachelor’s of Science in Biological Sciences from Arizona State University.

When Aubrey isn’t keeping busy with​​ being a Learning Coach, you can find her experimenting in the kitchen or perfecting her beloved pickle recipe. She loves reading, swimming in the ocean, and learning more about animals and the incredible world we live in.

Meet Learning Coach Anna

Anna grew up in Kansas but moved to Arizona in 1987. She graduated with a B.S. in Recreation Management from Arizona State University and a baccalaureate in Early Childhood Education. Anna has been an educator for over 20 years and is passionate about helping students to love learning and become self-directed learners. She believes students are more motivated to learn when they have a sense of ownership and control over their own learning. Her goal is to provide guidance and support to learners as they work towards their own goals, planning and organizing their learning activities, and reflecting on their progress.

When not at KaiPod, Anna can be found somewhere outdoors-hiking, paddle boarding, running, camping, or playing pickleball.
