About Rachel

Rachel Pyle was born in the Midwest, but raised in sunny Southern California. She is excited to join iLead this year and help families with their unique independent studying journey. Rachel received her B.S. in General Studies, with a focus in Elementary Education, and her Multiple Subject Teaching Credential from the University of Southern California in Los Angeles. She has taught preschool and elementary school for many years at private schools and has also independent studyed her daughter through PreK. The grades she has the most experience with are 2nd and 3rd, but has also subbed for most elementary grades, taught elementary art, and worked a year in middle school.
When Rachel is not teaching, she is enjoying motherhood, working on her yoga skills, and loves spending time outdoors or getting crafty with her two children. You can usually find her at the beach, a basketball court, or making memories with family and friends.
