What is a Coach?

At One Hope Academy, a Coach is more than just a teacher—they’re a mentor, guide, and partner in your child’s learning journey. Every Coach is an experienced Certified Teacher with a strong background in education and a diverse set of accomplishments. They work one-on-one with students to set personalized goals, support academic progress, and nurture critical life skills. Whether helping a child stay focused during core learning or encouraging creativity in a passion project, our Coaches ensure every student feels seen, supported, and inspired to grow.

What is the typical class size?

Each class is intentionally capped at 15 students to ensure a personalized and focused learning experience. This small class size allows our Coaches to provide meaningful one-on-one support, build strong relationships with each student, and tailor instruction to individual learning needs. With fewer students, there’s more time for mentorship, deeper engagement, and a stronger sense of community.

How do we keep kids safe online?

Your child’s digital safety is a top priority. Students access only our secure, proprietary 2HR Learning curriculum through a dedicated app. Screen time is structured and purposeful, managed using the proven Pomodoro Method—short, focused learning sessions followed by active breaks. This approach promotes healthy tech habits while ensuring a safe and distraction-free online environment.

What is the pomodoro method?

Pomodoro is a time management method that breaks the 2HR Learning sessions into 25 minute intervals (Pomodoros), separated by short breaks with a longer break after 4 Pomodoros. Each break will include physical activity and a change of scenery. This proven method is designed to improve focus and productivity.

AI Platform? Will kids be talking to robots?

Not at all! Our AI platform is a smart learning tool—not a robot. It personalizes lessons based on your child’s progress and needs, helping them master concepts at their own pace. Our coaches are always there to guide, support, and celebrate their growth.

What if my child has a learning disability?

We’re committed to supporting all learners. Our individualized instruction naturally aligns with many common classroom accommodations, such as focused work time, flexible pacing, and built-in breaks—all of which are integrated into our day through the Pomodoro Method. We also welcome collaboration with outside therapists or professionals and are happy to accommodate on-site support to ensure your child’s success. At One Hope Academy, every child is met where they are—and encouraged to thrive.

We’re here to help. If you didn’t find the answer you were looking for, feel free to reach out—our team is happy to provide more information and support.
