Guerrilla Learning: How to Give Your Kids a Real Education With or Without School Review: Something Amiss in the Classroom? - For most of us who grew up inside a public educational institution, it is difficult to imagine alternatives. Indeed, it may difficult to imagine anything at all. After twelve (in my case 19) years of absract inundation, most of us have lost the trees in a forest of abstractions. We inhabit a vacuous matrix of unispired, cynical defeatism, where teachers can't level with us as human beings and test questions bear no resemblance to reality. Until graduation day, that is. Then the world opens up before us, free for the plunder of active, self-interested engagement. What if we had never left that world from start? What if from birth to grave our lives were naturally interesting and piquant? What if we didn't educate ourselves for the test, but instead focused on the context of our life and followed our natural curiosities? Einstein (a college drop-out) certainly thought this was the right approach to education: "It is in fact nothing short of a miracle that the modern methods of instruction have not yet strangle the holy curiosity of inquiry." This book a refreshing, imaginative, and likewise extremely practical guide to context-driven education. All my life I had been vexed with the notion that contemporary education is utterly wrongheaded and thwarting, but until now I had never had the language or facts to back up my intuitive, gut feeling. Whether you are thinking of making the great experimental leap and homeschooling your kids, or whether you simply want to better understand how to get the most out of your local educational institution, this book is essential. Although you cannot relive the wasted years, it will send you in the right direction for future learning, and help you give your children an education that will truly unlock their deepest potential. Isn't that what education is supposed to be about: unlocking our native potential and stimulating genuine growth? With this book the relationship between information and the world becomes transparent again, as it should have been from the very beginning. Review: Must-read for parents!! - A must read for any parent raising a child in today's society! Whether you are for or against your child being in the public school system, you owe to not only yourself but to your children to make an informed decision. This book really opened my eyes to an entire new world of possibilities about education, and that school and education are not one in the same. It really re-invigorates a passion for learning and exploring your children's interests in life, as well as making me excited again as not only a parent but a person with unlimited possibilities as well!! No more being forced to see school as an institutionalized bureaucracy that defines your only worth, but that the entire world and nature is our teacher. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | 0471349607 | | Best Sellers Rank | #1,972,766 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #1,161 in Parent Participation in Education (Books) #1,379 in Parenting & Family Reference #18,806 in Education Workbooks (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.4 4.4 out of 5 stars (50) | | Dimensions | 6 x 0.7 x 8.9 inches | | Edition | 1st | | ISBN-10 | 9780471349600 | | ISBN-13 | 978-0471349600 | | Item Weight | 9.6 ounces | | Language | English | | Print length | 224 pages | | Publication date | August 1, 2001 | | Publisher | Trade Paper Press | ## Images ![Guerrilla Learning: How to Give Your Kids a Real Education With or Without School - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/7151a+cMroL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Something Amiss in the Classroom? *by J***K on June 16, 2002* For most of us who grew up inside a public educational institution, it is difficult to imagine alternatives.

This helps me find a middle ground from which we(our family) can move in any direction ( to school or not to school) while keeping the joy of learning alive for our children. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.com.ar/products/8584744-guerrilla-learning-how-to-give-your-kids-a-real-education](https://www.desertcart.com.ar/products/8584744-guerrilla-learning-how-to-give-your-kids-a-real-education) --- *Product available on Desertcart Argentina* *Store origin: AR* *Last updated: 2026-08-26*
