Welcome to Education for Life, a system of education that emphasizes experiential learning, practical skills for living, and spiritual development. It is a proven approach to education that is used in schools from pre-school through college.
As parents, grandparents, and educators, we all want the best for the students in our lives. We want them to be successful in life. Clearly, success is much more than a good job, financial security, a nice home, and social status.
Education for Life teachers believe in raising children to express their greatest gifts and talents throughout their lives, and to lead lives of joy, happiness, fulfillment, and meaning. Students excel not only in self-understanding and resilience, but in academic achievement.
This successful system, begun in 1972, has spread from the west coast of the U.S. to both Europe and India (see Find A School). Parents, public and private school teachers who take our training find the techniques invaluable. (Testimonials)
