The field of education has been pushing lifelong learning for years, and there’s still no place like home for cultivating an attitude of ongoing curiosity and exploration. Education is done best when students go on learning beyond class time, beyond the academic year, and beyond graduation. As elective courses and nonrequired activities are cut from public and private schools, home is more important than ever.
Home is where everyone should grow up with an attitude of lifelong learning. Families can make language-learning a habit around the house, instead of leaving it all up to the school down the street.
