Is TJEd Unschooling?

  • “Part of being successful (in TJEd) is wanting this education for yourself as much as for them.”
  • TJEd is purposeful, thought-out and active.
  • Even when the children’s experience may approximate “unschooling”, the adults’ experience does not. 
  • The adult in the family has an active and rigorous Scholar life (once Core and Love of Learning are well achieved for them personally and individually).
  • Core Phase includes lots of play, and Family Work.
  • The Phases go in order, and you can’t skip ahead.
  • Unschooling is child-led. TJEd is parent-led.
  • Play in Core Phase is important. But it isn’t the whole deal – by a long shot! 🙂
  • Academic pressure to create a paper trail and jump through hoops are not the focus of Love of Learning.
  • See Ingredients #3-4 in The Phases of Learning
  • See “The Bridge” audio, found in the Scholar Phase section of the Newbies Track in this convention.
  • A key to a Leadership home are parents who lead the way.
