  • Pulling Back the Veneer: What's Wrong with Modern Education?

    For those that graduated high school 30 or 40 years ago, it's easy to look back on our schooling and think, "Well, it wasn't that bad." But is today's traditional education environment the same as those of yesteryear? No. The classroom culture has shifted in a sobering, subversive way that should make us want to pump the brakes on the big yellow prison bus and jump right off. Join Dr. Lisa Dunne on today's show as we pull back the veneer on modern education's content and methodology. We know the data on the success of homeschooling, but often parents are afraid. It's a big step, maybe a scary step, to imagine taking full responsibility for your child's academic, emotional, and spiritual growth. But the data shows over and over again that the highest success rates, the best socio-academic training comes from the organic nature of homeschooling. Fear not, parents. As Spurgeon reminds us, we can bring our empty pitcher to the Lord, and he will fill it from the well that never runs dry. You can do this, mom and dad. We are here to help you.

  • From Piaget to Harlow: What the Developmental Data Proves about Early Childhood Learning

    Parents, the roadmaps provided by the world's leading developmental researchers show us two compelling facts about the early years of learning: children learn most effectively and efficiently when we slow down and bring learning home. Yet for the last several decades, Americans have been focused on an opposite approach. What has been the resultant harvest, and what are the true predictors of socio-academic success? Join Dr. Lisa Dunne for part two of this Early Learner episode as we unpack the developmental milestones of early childhood and discover what methods are truly worthy of the investment. Remember, you can join us on the journey to take back education from preschool to college.

  • Savoring the Moments: The Luxury of Time Well Spent in Homeschooling

    Homeschooling provides parents the tremendous luxury of time. While our academic counterparts are often stuck in the scholastic rat race that keeps them "studying" in school for 7 hours a day and then checking off homework boxes another 3 hours each night, homeschoolers have the grand freedom of learning through relationship and discussion for a fraction of that time period (and the scores to prove the model works). But it isn't time alone that creates the relationship, the bond, the power of the model. Join Dr. Lisa Dunne for a reminder of the necessity of savoring the moment and living fully planted in the present as we train up a generation in the way they should go.
