Her undergraduate and Masters degrees in Human Development focused on early childhood and adult education respectively and give Ijumaa a unique understanding of both how children and adults learn best. With over twenty-five years of practice as a teacher, leader and mentor she discerns from among a variety of tools and approaches to find the best fit for learners and educators.
