Kirsten Risko To All Instructors

Hello families!

I’m Kirsten, a homeschool mom to four wild and free little souls ages 8,8,5, &2! :)

My husband and I are both originally from the PNW, but have made North County our home since we married in 2012. We recently relocated to Fallbrook and we are loving our slower country life on five acres! I have a passion for teaching my kids through nature and practical daily life, & my biggest hope is for them to find and share the love of Jesus in all we do.

I have a strong background in English and Science, but after I got married I did an about-face and went back to school to study American Sign Language. I have many friends and family in the Deaf community and I fell in love with the language and the people who were sharing it with me. In 2013, with 1 year old twins, I graduated with my degree as an ASL interpreter from Palomar College. I’m so excited to partner with Legacy and your families to create a fun and interactive experience for your children. In my classroom you’ll find me always striving to teach your kids to become life-long learners. You’ll find us in our seats, outside, in groups, with a special guest, and always always laughing. Bringing joy to our learning and loving on these precious kids fills my soul, so thank you for lending them to me for a short time :)
