Description
The Brave Learner offers a joyful and accessible approach to homeschooling that harnesses children's natural curiosity, making learning an integral part of everyday life, whether they're in elementary or high school.
Publishers Weekly bestseller: A guide to making learning a vibrant part of daily life.
Parents deeply invested in their children's education can often be hard on themselves and their kids. In the midst of daily challenges, it might seem daunting to infuse learning with fun or interest. How do parents nurture a love of learning amid childhood chaos, self-doubt, illnesses, and stringent academic standards?
In The Brave Learner, Julie Bogart distils decades of experienceβfrom homeschooling her five now-grown children, developing curricula, to training homeschooling families worldwideβto show parents how to transform education into an exciting and enchanting experience for their kids, irrespective of their age.
Enchantment is about ease, not striving. Bogart offers guidance on creating room for surprise, mystery, risk, and adventure in the family routine, paving the way for an environment that naturally fosters learning. When a child expresses a desire to explore new hobbies or subjects, especially areas unfamiliar to the parent, there is a tendency to dismiss these interests, stifling their curiosity. Bogart gently encourages parents to exemplify brave learning, fostering an atmosphere where curiosity, joy, and courage to embrace learning risks are the norm.
