Jakob Waller

I'm a trained educator, behavioral scientist, and licensed primary, secondary, and adult education teacher with a strong commitment to children and youth and an interest in cognitive psychology, and neuropedagogy. I have extensive experience working as a teacher in both independent and public schools, as well as Waldorf and Montessori schools. I am trained in school leadership and have worked as section chief for municipal special needs schools for students struggling with regular schooling.

Having met and taught thousands of students in various school forms has been a privilege. It has brought me much joy, insight into the students' world, valuable knowledge, and sparked a particular interest in neurodivergent students in need of support and adaptation. Based on my experiences, I am convinced that all students can learn, and succeed in, anything. To what extent they do so largely depends on the environment they are in, the treatment they receive, and what they experience.
