You were a kid the first time you dove head-first into a new interest. You forgot to eat and sleep, you were too absorbed in this amazing new thing to focus on anything else. You were fixated - hyperfocused - on learning this new coolest-thing-ever you had found.
It started with a project. You picked a thing you wanted to make, or to be able to do, and suddenly you were hooked.
Through making or doing that first thing, you learned everything you needed to know to develop a decent level of skill at that task.
Then, you moved on. Either to a totally different interest, or to another project within this one, deepening your knowledge.
That is how you've learned from the first day you realized there were cool things out there that you didn't know how to do.
And then came school. Where you learned in a methodical way, what other people thought was important. You learned from books, following a regimented plan. You didn't know why you were learning things in this order. You didn't understand why you could no longer play with the concepts or try things out. You were penalized for failures and messes, so you stopped making those.
You stopped learning in the way that you innately know how to learn, and became a student instead.
Solo School exists to undo that.
To help you unlearn all of the schooling behaviours and regimented curriculum design.
To help you reclaim your learning ability and discover the joy of failure, curiosity, and messiness again.
To help you forget how to be a student, and remember how to learn.
Through project-based learning paths across mutliple fields of study, we give you everything you need to learn things the way you used to - fueled by interest and passion and the courage to break things.
Through our PROSPER track, we can help you start and scale a business as a neurodivergent founder.
And soon, through our CREATE, LIVE, and THINK tracks, we'll teach you new creative skills, life skills, and theoretical and philosphical ideas that will help you navigate life with more curiosity, passion, interest, and joy as a neurodivergent adult.
We're not neurodivergent-accessible, we're neurodivergent FIRST.
You are welcome here.
