Experienced & Passionate Educators

Alondra Morales

Program Director and Teacher

Alondra Morales is a former teacher with a passion for education and helping students succeed. With over 15 years of experience in the classroom, she has developed a deep understanding of the challenges facing students, parents and teachers alike.

Through the years in the classroom, Ms. Alondra was also grade level chair, where she was responsible for providing support and mentoring teachers. This title included advocating the needs of students and teachers, implementing ideas and collaborating with parents in order to provide a successful academic experience for children.

Her passion for education and working with others, earned her Teacher of the Year in 2019. Since then, Alondra has focused on raising her two children and nurturing their love for learning. Through staying home and engaging in activities with them, she recognized the need for meaningful support within the homeschool community. This planted the seed for The Creative Teaching Nest, where she now continues doing what she loves—teaching and guiding families on their homeschool journey.
