Better Than Homeschooling?
Interest in homeschooling has been significant for decades, given its advantages like personalized learning, flexible scheduling, and a safe environment. However, the Ecole d'Humanité offers many of these benefits and more, presenting a compelling alternative for parents considering homeschooling. Discover how our unique approach could be the better choice for your child's education.
Individualized Learning
Our small class sizes, averaging six students, allow teachers to cater to individual needs far better than public schools. This fosters a holistic educational approach, enhancing each student's strengths and educational needs, and creating an environment where they can develop freely. Our attentive teachers provide individual support, ensuring that every student thrives.
Flexible Schedule
While our schedule is structured, students have the flexibility to build their own afternoon schedules. They choose courses that interest them, balancing their time between academic pursuits, social life, community service, and a variety of extracurricular activities. This helps them develop time management skills and pursue their passions in a supportive environment.
Safe Learning Environment
The inclusive school structure naturally hinders the potential for bullying, promoting mutual support among students. The Ecole families, small living groups within our community, nurture a sense of belonging and discourage power dynamics. Students voice their opinions through democratic forums and learn to handle conflicts respectfully. This safe and supportive environment fosters well-being and academic success.
Similar Costs to Homeschooling
The opportunity costs of homeschooling are comparable to the school fees of the Ecole d’Humanité. While homeschooling often requires one parent to forgo full-time employment to manage the child’s education, the Ecole d’Humanité involves costs for boarding. However, these costs offer comprehensive care and a diverse academic and co-curricular program that may be more attractive, providing a structured and supportive learning environment for students.

What People Are Saying
“The Ecole’s innovative approach to education and its dedicated teachers taught me to think both critically and creatively. The Ecole also pushed me to take responsibility for my education. I left the Ecole not only with skills that allowed me to excel academically but also with a joy of learning and intense curiosity that has lasted to this day.”
— Dr. Djahane Salehabadi, University of Freiburg
“Our son hated school and for sure wanted nothing to do with college. He came home for Christmas after his first term at the Ecole knowing where he wanted to go to University, and what he wanted to study. He was able to follow his dream and has since earned an MBA."
— Jim, Father of Mats
“No other place has offered me the same lessons in living a balanced life, keeping an open mind, building relationships, and developing problem-solving skills – all attributes I credit for a happy and contented life today.”
