Kristina Heagh-Avritt is a former public school teacher who now supports families in finding the best educational paths for their children. Kristina focuses on the pressing issues within the current educational framework—more rules, regulations, and a lack of connection with families and students. She emphasizes how the school system is broken and suggests that the solution lies in empowering parents to take control of their children’s education through homeschooling. With her experience, Christina founded Vibrant Family Education (vibrantfamilyeducation.com/),where she helps families navigate the homeschooling landscape.
One of the advantages of homeschooling is a personalized curriculum that caters to each child’s unique learning style. Â This flexibility fosters a love for learning, as children can progress at their own pace without the pressure of a standardized curriculum.
Kristina also dispels common myths about homeschooling, such as the belief that parents cannot be effective teachers or that homeschooled children lack socialization. She argues that parents are inherently their child’s first teachers and can provide a supportive learning environment that nurtures their child’s interests. In fact, many homeschooled children excel socially, often being more prepared for real-world interactions than their peers in traditional schools.
With parents and former teachers like Kristina, education is quietly undergoing a revolution, one that places children and mastery first. Learning is becoming fun again. And more importantly, it’s providing the skills kids need in this modern world. Join the conversation.
