About Us

Prior to becoming digital nomads, we lived in Chicago while running in the rate race.

Brodi has a Master’s Degree in Human Resources Management from Loyola University Chicago and spent most of her 16-year career in project management.

Many of those projects involved designing and delivering training programs.

David has a Master’s Degree in Education with a specialty in Instructional Design & Technology from Colorado Technical University.

He’s worked as a corporate trainer and has been a professor for an online university.

We started as a full-time traveling, digital nomad family of three in 2019. We worldschool our son and enjoy seeking adventure as a family. Many who know about us can attest we have always lived our lives a little differently.

See our family’s travel blog at Our Offbeat Life.

David has always enjoyed content creation and transitioned to online ESL teaching before we left to travel full-time.

We traveled the world for two years with ESL teaching as our primary income. When China’s policies on foreign ESL teachers changed, thousands of tutors found themselves without students.

As we began connecting privately with students, their parents, and other online ESL tutors worldwide we found that certain needs were not being adequately met.

Most existing curriculums were not sufficient for what parents expected. It was difficult to receive payments from parents in certain countries, including Mainland China.

There were no scheduling resources that allowed for scheduling classes after bulk packages were purchased. Curriculum creators were not being adequately compensated for their creation efforts.

ESL tutors trying to create their own tutoring businesses were spending far too much time on administrative tasks.

We realized if we wanted to work smarter, not harder that we needed to create our own all-in-one solution.

Between our corporate backgrounds and digital nomad work experience, we knew we could build the right solution for our own needs that would also be a fit for online tutors around the world.
