Helping You in Your Role as a Home Educator

God calls all parents to train their children in His law. Based on God's commands to parents, education falls in their jurisdiction. Parents fully embrace this high calling when educating their children at home. When every discipline is taught directly by the parent, he or she can ensure that a Biblical worldview provides the framework for understanding each subject.

The Foundation is committed to serve and equip home educators in their vital God-ordained role. The Principle Approach^® method to education is the best method to teach the Biblical worldview and apply God's truths in every subject. With this unique method, not only is the Biblical worldview the framework for understanding each subject, but in each lesson, Biblical principles are taught that expand and enrich the Biblical understanding of that subject.

The Principle Approach also features the tutorial method. Foundational to this method is the principle of Individuality—each child is uniquely created by God. Each child therefore has his own set of learning styles, challenges, and skills. A home educator has the opportunity to customize each lesson to the needs of each child and the Principle Approach is designed for just this purpose! Each student is given the opportunity to excel and best of all, to love learning.

When using the Principle Approach, the home educator (the teacher) will learn as he prepares and teaches each lesson. We call this the "Teacher as Learner" concept. The students learn from the personal growth, knowledge, experience and stories of the teacher so, he is a "Living Textbook."

The Principle Approach teaches your student how to learn. He will acquire the reading, research, application, and writing skills necessary to study on his own. The Principle Approach is the best preparation for higher learning! After your child graduates from his home education, he will be prepared for college and all future academic pursuits.

The character formed in your child will be the priceless and enduring hallmark of their Biblical, Principle Approach education.
