About Us

Personalized education, engaging learning, real-world experiences.

Located in Brandon, FL, Home Schooling Pod offers personalized, flexible education for homeschooling families. Founded by experienced homeschooling parents, including our CEO, Zara Cory Mohammed, we bring immense knowledge and firsthand experience to creating a supportive learning environment. As homeschoolers ourselves, we understand the unique needs of each child. Our dedicated team provides a diverse curriculum, including Math, Science, History, Languages, and hands-on STEM projects. With both online and in-person options, we emphasize engaging, real-world learning through weekly field trips in a safe and supportive setting.

About us

Proudly Approved by Step Up For Students

We are proud to be an approved provider for the Step Up for Students scholarship program. Additionally, we accept the Unique Abilities (FES-UA) and Personalized Education Program (FTC-PEP) scholarships. These programs allow eligible families to use scholarship funds for our personalized homeschooling services. We also offer a direct-pay option for families who prefer that method of payment.

However, please note that we do not accept the FTC-EO scholarship, as our program is not a private school.

If your child qualifies for any of these scholarships, we are happy to assist you in navigating the application process. For more details on eligibility and how to apply, please visit the scholarship websites or contact us for further assistance.
