Every family finds their own use and adaptation of the method they choose. By fully understanding the various homeschool approaches, you can make the most informed decision on what is right for your family.



Classical

Classical Education is a teaching model that seeks to tailor the curriculum subject matter to a child’s cognitive development. The trivium emphasizes concrete thinking and memorization of the facts of the subjects in grade school; analytical thinking and understanding of the subjects in middle school; and abstract thinking and articulation of the subjects in high school.

Eclectic

Eclectic Homeschooling uses a variety of homeschool approaches in order to piece together the best curriculum from various methods and philosophies that complement the academic and experiential learning of their child.

Waldorf

Waldorf education was developed by the Austria philosopher and metaphysicist Rudolf Steiner in the 1920 and is based around his views that the development of children paralleled world history and the development of mankind and tailored the Waldorf school curriculum to compliment that.

Unschooling

The philosophy behind the unschooling approach is that the child learns and retains much more when allowed to follow interests, share in real life experiences and exploration.
