| "Thank you... The information you supply is real and generous - fantastic reading. I am so inspired... Your honesty is rare. Most books do not really explain 'how' as well as you do." Tracy "I cannot seem to get enough of your writings on the whole home ed subject! You portray a lot of wisdom, knowledge and experience..." Marie "A fabulous source of information and inspiration. I am very pleased to have some of your titles on my bookshelf... providing me with wonderful, detailed information and resources." Faye |
"Every time I read your writing it feels like a pat on the shoulder, and that feels really good...Thanks!" Maaike

Natural Learning Booklets Beverley and Robin are strong believers in the principle of learning naturally, that is, allowing children to learn at their own pace, in their own way, those things they need to learn as they grow and develop. Sometimes called unschooling or radical unschooling, natural learning differs only in that an emphasis is placed on learning life-skills within the context of family and community. Children learn to cooperate and compromise as they participate fully in family and community life. Often erroneously called 'delight directed learning' natural learning also encompasses learning that isn't fun or delightful, but needs-based. Children are driven to learn in order to grow into adulthood - getting in the way of this learning, by insisting on it happening contrary to how the child learns best, is what natural learning seeks to avoid. For more information on Natural Learning see Beverley's articles on the Homeschool Australia website.The ever-growing range of booklets by Beverley Paine and friends covers many topics, offering information, insight and help on many of the issues that face new and experienced home educators.

Pioneering members of the home education movement in Australia, Beverley and Robin Paine are passionate advocates of true educational choice for families. They began homeschooling their children in 1986 and three years later started the South Australian Home Based Learners network.Beverley wrote Getting Started with Homeschooling in 1995-97 and since then continues to write books and booklets on home education. She balances spending time helping home educators with working in her garden and renovating her home, as well as continuing to build her collection of writing on a variety of homeschooling subjects. Beverley maintains an extensive collection of websites as well as several Yahoo groups supporting families teaching their children at home. In 2007 Beverley joined the HEA and became a committee member in 2008: she also edits and produce the HEA Newsletter, HEA magazine, Stepping Stones for Home Educators, annual Resource Directory and other HEA publications.
