Freeing Teens to
learn naturally
Years 13-19 of a young person’s life should be spent discovering themselves, exploring their world, their interests, and the many possibilities for future paths. Everything “academic” that they need, they have already learned. What is percieved as “gaps” will be easily acquired as they come to need it.
