Our Philosophy
One size does not fit all when it comes to education, because children are not all the same. We know that all children are unique, and they have their own learning styles, personalities, and personal challenges in life. One of our goals is to "study" each student and understand each child's unique situation and help them from where they are individually. We believe that children should be treated with respect, patience, and kindness, creating an atmosphere of trust where they can feel free to learn without fear of making mistakes.

Motivation -  Love for Learning
We believe that the best way for children to learn is to have their own personal and internal reasons to do so. To put it simply, to cultivate a "love of learning" in children that drives them to learn for themselves. For children, learning is as natural as breathing. No one taught them to talk or to walk; they did it themselves because they wanted to. Their natural curiosity and desire to make sense of the world around them is what motivates them to learn. When we learn because we want to, we invest more of ourselves into it. The process becomes more satisfying and enjoyable, and we are likely to learn more and to remember what we learn for the rest of our lives.

Method -  Learn for Themselves
When children are studied and observed to see how they learn and what difficulties stand in their way, one thing becomes very clear: children don't learn unless they learn it for themselves. In other words, children have to be the ones doing the work of learning. Because of this, we want to help teach children how to think, rather than what to think, equipping them with a variety of skills to help them teach themselves. Essentially, our goal is to work ourselves out of a job, one student at a time. We do this by equipping our students to become their own best teachers, with the confidence and determination to tackle any future difficulties on their own.

Purpose -  Take Responsibility for their own Education
No matter how hard we might try, our children won't really get an education until they take an active and purposeful part in it. They have to want to learn and have a good reason to do the hard work of getting an education for themselves. How does that happen? It happens the same way for children as it does for adults. They have to believe that what they are doing is meaningful to them personally. Children, just like adults, don't want to do anything they think has no purpose to it. We believe that children will rise to the challenge of doing something difficult if they see it as important to them, now and for their future.
