Developer


  • Under the Home (UTH) is being developed by Sonja Glumich - a mother, an educator, and a scientist.
  • I created UTH so my husband, who has no prior experience teaching children, can provide a joyful and low-stress homeschool experience for our three children. Our children started kindergarten during the 2016-2017 school year, so our children are currently learning alongside your children.
