GRAY, Tenn. - s4story -- Many of today's students share a similar experience with American children who grew up prior to 1900: learning at home. Home education was typical once upon a time. Though it nearly went extinct by the 1970s, the homeschooling population grew rapidly during the 1980s and 1990s (NHERI.org). These days, of course, homeschooling is not only common, but booming.

Modern homeschool parents preparing their children for the future can look to the past. A nineteenth-century British educator named Charlotte Mason would be surprised to realize her influencer status in the present. Her ideas, though introduced long ago, remain prevalent and admired among today's home educators. She encouraged nature studies and habit formation and inspired many with quotes like, "There is nothing which a mother cannot bring her child up to be." Gena Suarez, publisher of The Old Schoolhouse® Magazine, adds, "Everything old really is new again. Homeschooling has been around longer than educational institutions, and it is growing profoundly as parents discover home is the best place to learn. Parents have always been natural teachers."
