Ron Paul Homeschool Curriculum
Do you homeschool? Are you worn out? Get your sanity back.
Give Your Kids A Quality Education and Save Your Mental Health
Are you a homeschooling parent? Are you at your wits’ end trying to learn multiple subjects to teach them to your children? Is making lesson plans overwhelming?
Then the self-taught Ron Paul Curriculum is for you. Not only will using the Ron Paul Curriculum help you to regain your sanity, it will also enable you to pass down your worldview to your children and give them the quality education that you wish you had gotten in school.
29 Reasons to Join the Ron Paul Curriculum
The following were taken from the Ron Paul Curriculum website.
Reason #1: This curriculum helps you pass on your most important inheritance: your worldview. It is the only video-based, self-taught, reading-intensive, writing-intensive, online homeschool program that provides a systematic defense of limited government and the free market economy. I call this the freedom philosophy.
Reason #2: Students begin writing weekly essays in the fourth grade. They do this for nine years. They master the unique lifetime skill of effective writing.
Reason #3: It is self-taught, grades 3-12: math, biology, physics, chemistry — everything.
Reason #4: Students help each other on the courses’ forums.
Reason #5: Daily video lessons — exclusive to the RPC (not on YouTube).
Reason #6: There are no textbooks to buy — even in math and science courses.
Reason #7: Students read original sources in history and government courses.
Reason #8: There is a weekly review lesson in every course for much higher memory retention rates.
Reason #9: In most of the high school courses, college professors or Ph.D’s teach.
Reason #10: There are three high school tracks: humanities, math/natural science, and business.
Reason #11: The high school has two years of Western civilization — unique. (Most have only one year.)
Reason #12: The high school has two years of Western literature — unique. (They parallel the Western Civ courses for better understanding of both history and literature.).
Reason #13: The American history course and the American literature course are also parallel for better understanding of both — unique.
Reason #14: The high school has two year-long courses on starting a home business.
Reason #15: The high school has a full-year course on public speaking.
Reason #16: The high school has a year’s course on personal finances for teens.
Reason #17: The curriculum is academically rigorous.
Reason #18: There is no “busy work.”
Reason #19: The curriculum teaches critical thinking.
Reason #20: There is a weekly essay in each non-math course.
Reason #21: The curriculum teaches the use of powerful digital communications tools.
Reason #22: The curriculum costs about $1.37 a day — less per child, if you sign up more than one child.
Reason #23: You pay less per student than a parent-intensive curriculum costs.
Reason #24: There is an affiliate program: you get half the enrollment fee for signing up friends . . . for as long as they re-enroll each year.
Reason #25: 40 free trial lessons: reading and arithmetic. See for yourself how video instruction works.
Reason #26: Everything comes with a 100% money-back guarantee.
Bonus: Reason #27: Your child can take the ABC course: Academic Boot Camp. This course is like nothing else in the homeschooling community. Dr. Gary North, the RPC’s Director of Curriculum Development, teaches students how to master new information. He explains a crucial technique that empowers students who lack self-confidence. He calls it “flypaper memory.” This technique gives them a permanent edge: for the rest of their lives. Your child can take this course for free. If, when it’s over, your child still does not feel equipped academically, just cancel your membership.
Bonus: Reason #28: If you sign up today, you can stop teaching grades 4-12 immediately, except for grading weekly exams and reading the weekly essays. You can devote your time to teaching the younger children. Your time is precious. Don’t waste it with a textbook-based curriculum. There is also a huge advantage for your children with video-based instruction. A student can “re-wind” any part of any lesson, and watch it again and again. This is what every curriculum should offer kindergarten through graduate school.
Bonus: Reason #29: Maybe you would like to take a course. The enrollment fee is for the whole family. You can log in for free and then buy a course. Better yet, if you order a course for your child, you get it for free.
