Hi, I’m Dr. Takisha Gastile—educator, STEM advocate, and homeschooling parent with nearly 20 years of experience in K–12 and higher education. I have coached future science and math teachers, led curriculum development, and secured funding to expand access to STEM education for underrepresented students.
Recognizing the need for flexible, high-quality online STEM education, I founded HomeSTEM Academy to provide families with a structured virtual homeschool that combines strong academics, hands-on learning, and meaningful parent partnership.
HomeSTEM Academy is more than online school, it’s a pathway to confident, capable, and curious learners.
