40 people came to the first workshop on “custom schooling“, an approach to schooling with class sizes from 1 to 4 that is surprisingly affordable, manageable, effective, and fun.
Paper on the subject, that I recommend.
Here are videos of the parents session and the teachers session. We have had one more family already commit to trying it this summer. Onward!
Hi,
I heard about your custom schooling and would love to chat directly. I’m starting a parent participation/cooperative school that is currently located across the street from the Internet Archives (in the synagogue building on 14th/Clement).
We are looking for a larger space and am curious if you have any rooms to rent at the Internet Archives.
I can be reached at 415.676.1023.
Cheers,

Thank you for sharing these videos! I especially liked the second video with the teacher panel. I am interested in trying this for my child — in Japan.
Enjoyed your paper, Brewster. I bought a copy of Euclid’s elements when my son Gensen was born, but have yet to spring it on him. Am starting a Math Club at his Montessori school next semester though, with precisely the view of bringing some specialist enthusiasm to the curriculum (not to mention Martin Garner, etc)
