Mrs. Ariella Heller

Ariella Heller brings ten years of experience as a humanities teacher and outdoor educator, working with a wide range of learners in both general and special education settings. She has a deep love for thoughtful, creative curriculum design and for meeting students exactly where they are. Ariella is passionate about creating learning experiences that feel alive, connected, and accessible, helping each child engage with curiosity, confidence, and a sense of ownership.

Ariella holds a Bachelor’s degree in Modern Languages and Literature from Levinsky College in Tel Aviv, where she developed her appreciation for interdisciplinary learning and the power of language, story, and culture. She has also completed adolescent Montessori training, strengthening her understanding of how to support students as they grow into independence, identity, and self‑direction.

As an educator, Ariella blends her humanities background with her love of the outdoors, designing experiences that invite students to explore, question, and build meaningful connections to the world around them. She values hands‑on learning, creative expression, and environments where students feel safe to take risks and discover their strengths.

Ariella is the mother of two wonderful children and enjoys a wide range of creative pursuits — art, reading, writing, DIY projects at home, and gardening. These passions naturally flow into her teaching, bringing warmth, creativity, and authenticity to her classroom.
