Introducing Autonomous Hippopotamus LLC, a new option for Neurodivergent people who struggle academically or behaviorally. We are an educational therapy and tutoring company that caters specifically to Neurodivergent people ages 8-adult. We pride ourselves with being a neuro-affirming organization and ran by an actually autistic certified special educator and entrepreneur. We believe in educating the whole person and helping our clients be their full selves.
We take a person-centered approach that respects our clients’ autonomy. We also utilize a strengths-based approach while still integrating remedial approaches. Our trauma-informed staff realize that in order to effectively learn, a person must feel safe inside and out. We have a strong belief in quality over quantity and sometimes providing effective interventions can take some time and patience depending on the student. In addition to academic interventions, we also provide students with ways
to cope or combat cognitive challenges caused by trauma, mental health challenges, autism, ADHD, and learning disabilities. We also help gifted students by creating interesting and challenging programing. We use a combined approach for Twice Exceptional students. All staff are Neurodivergent and trained special educators because mentorship is an integrated part of all of our services.
Currently offering both remote and in-person sessions. In-person sessions are only available in the Baltimore area at this time (including Baltimore City, Towson, Catonsville, ect.)
