Our Mission
“What’s inside your belly button?”
“Where does the water in the faucet come from?”
“Can you teach me more?”
WonderBlossom Learning Studio was created for children bursting with questions — seven days a week.
Founded by a mom and seasoned educator with extensive experience in NYC’s top public and private schools, WonderBlossom brings the best of both worlds within reach for more families of gifted and talented children. We know that gifted and talented (G&T) children think differently because they ask deeper questions, love complexity, and light up when they’re challenged. Yet even in many public G&T classrooms, their hunger for depth, knowledge, and application is often limited by time or resources.
WonderBlossom feeds that hunger with premium, project-based learning that builds on the strong foundation of public education while offering the depth and intellectual freedom more often found in private schools.
More than just academics, WonderBlossom supports the social and emotional growth of gifted learners through small group collaboration, real-world challenges, and joyful connection with ideas and with each other.
What makes WBLS different?
Project-based approach fosters interdisciplinary connections.
Seamless integration of academic subjects like math, science, literacy, and history within every theme.
Small groups for meaningful discussions and personalized attention.
Led by experienced educators who understand the needs of gifted learners.
A joyful environment where wonder truly blossoms!
Peggy is an elementary educator and math specialist with 20 years of experience designing curricula to captivate her curious students. With degrees in Human Development from Cornell University and Early Childhood Education from Teachers College, Columbia University, Peggy understands and respects the motivations and unique developmental characteristics of gifted students. She is now committed to providing a valuable alternative to extracurricular programs right in her native Queens.
As a mom of two young WonderBlossoms, Peggy designs her classes with her own children in mind. Her greatest hope is that they retain their sense of wonder and inquisitiveness well into old age. Raised by parents who emphasized the fearless pursuit of knowledge and sense of self over perfect grades, she aims to instill the same values in her children — teaching them that no insect is too small to admire and no star too distant to reach.
