What
People Are Saying
... When [John Holt's publication] Growing Without
Schooling stopped publication [in 2001], Life Learning Magazine became
the leading journal of the unschooling movement. The magazine is packed
with well-written articles about the philosophy and practice of
unschooling. I must tell you, I had giving up on subscribing to
anything. Too many good intentions became piles of disappointment and
guilt. A friend recommended a back issue of your magazine when she
learned I was considering homeschooling my four children, and I was
hooked. Never before has a magazine so confirmed and inspired me in my
purpose as a parent. I read every issue in its entirety, and re-read and
refer to them regularly. Like Ken Wilber's 'Theory of Everything," it
pulls everything together for me, and more importantly, demonstrates how
to apply my beliefs and values and begin living my vision. Thank you!!! I am, for the very first time, paying to
subscribe to online content. I'm that hungry for some new Life
Learning articles! Your magazine makes my spirit leap with excitement,
and every ounce of my creativity and passion for life and for learning
churns when I devour the articles. I'm so glad for the outstanding success Life
Learning mag has been. As usual, you're the head of the pack. Sometimes parenting and unschooling as our
family does feels like walking through a desert of People Who
Don't Get It, and Life Learning magazine is like a wonderful
oasis of mothers and fathers and writers who truly GET IT. Makes
me want to sob with relief and gratitude sometimes. I am so very impressed with Life Learning.
It is the first magazine about this subject in which I always
find several interesting articles that I really want to read!
Thanks for continuing it as an online magazine. It's nice to
save some money and some trees too!
Life Learning is as resilient as the philosophy behind it! My
thanks to you both for your generosity in customer care. Life Learning
is a lifeline for me as I struggle with the nagging doubts in guiding
our daughter into self-learning.
Thumbs up for such an inspiring,
supportive, and revolutionary magazine! I have been a self-directed learner all my
life and have felt misunderstood for many years. I have always
referred to the home-based education of my children as
self-directed learning and am thrilled that there is finally a
magazine that truly addresses this lifestyle choice. You have my
full support and may trust that I will distribute and promote
this magazine at every opportunity. Thank you for being there and not being afraid to tell it like it
is. I am very excited to learn about unschooling in Canada and the
U.S. I am very impressed by the caliber of your authors and the types of
articles you publish.
Thanks for a magazine that treasures children and the love of learning.
Life Learning is a needed balance in a homeschooling spectrum dominated by
the political religious right. I recently found a copy of your magazine lurking on
the catalog shelves of our home educators support library. Being the
editor of our group's newsletter, I took it home to have a read. I was
so excited at the quality and number of the articles, I read the mag
from cover to cover, something I have not done with any other home
schooling magazine. I then went to your website! WOW, so much wonderful
information! Even though I have been home educating for nearly 10 years,
I still found it so encouraging. The teacher motivation in me wanted to
immediately force every one of our members to read everything; they
should not be missing out on all this good stuff. Your magazine has helped me more than I can
say. It made me remember why I kept them out of school in the
first place. My kids, no matter what, are so much better off
than if I'd put them in school. Whew. It was a close call.
Thanks for being there. Congratulations on your (our) magazine. I
think it is timely and I welcome it into our home... I
thoroughly enjoyed the article by John Gatto; to my mind he is
to the public education system what Noam Chomsky is to the mass
media.
I am totally impressed with its excellence - scope, know-how,
family-orientation, good writing. I just finished the current issue of Life
Learning and once again my confidence cup has been topped off.
I am so very glad that I found your magazine. We live near John
Holt’s original group and when the
Growing Without Schooling
magazine stopped, it was rather frightening to think that there wouldn’t
be a voice out there. Thank you for your work.
I am so excited about reading information leading to my focus on
home learning with my kids! it is the best magazine in the world!!!
Daniel Grego's article is the best article I've ever read on
your website or in your magazine. Thank you for publishing his work; his
insight and ideas will have me spinning all day--and longer! * These are real comments
from real people; originals are on file in our office.
The term life learning refers to a form of homeschooling that trusts children and avoids the trappings of school. It is sometimes called unschooling, radical unschooling, or natural learning. Life learning children live and learn naturally, with the support of their families, based on their own interests and their own timetables, and without curriculum, tests, or grades.
