Hi! I’m so glad you’re here.
I’m Kristina—a longtime high school teacher, a proud parent, and the founder of Next Level Academy. I created this program to help teens get ready for real life—not just the next test.
After years in the classroom (and at home with my own teen), I saw how many young people graduate without basic life skills—how to manage money, apply for jobs, or live independently. I knew there had to be a better way to support them as they launch into adulthood.
That’s why I built Launch to Life—a practical, teen-friendly course packed with real-world skills that I’ve taught to my own students and my own child. It’s structured, supportive, and designed to build confidence from the inside out.
This program is personal and close to my heart. I’ve seen what happens when young adults feel overwhelmed, unprepared, or too dependent. But I’ve also seen the spark that comes when they learn how to handle their own money, apply for their first job, or cook a real meal.
Next Level Academy exists to guide that transition—with structure, support, and real-world skills taught in a way that makes sense for teens.
Whether your teen is college-bound, career-bound, or still figuring it out, this course is here to help them launch—not linger.
To bridge the gap between school and real life by equipping teens and young adults with the essential skills, confidence, and independence they need to thrive in adulthood.
Because knowing what to do is just as important as knowing what to know.
We Know You Could Teach These Skills Yourself — But Sometimes Teens Need to Hear It from Someone Else
As a parent, you’ve already taught your teen so much. But when it comes to life skills like budgeting, responsibility, or planning for the future, it’s not uncommon for teens to tune out when the message comes from you.
That’s why Next Level Academy is designed to reinforce the values you’ve already been trying to instill—just delivered by a trusted teacher with real-world context and a fresh voice that teens are more likely to take seriously.
We’re not replacing your guidance—we’re backing you up.
