What Families are Saying
"After trying out so many learning centers for my child this school has exceeded my expectations. She loves her teachers, loves to learn and has fun doing it. I’m so happy she is challenged academically and that she never complains about going to school! Her confidence has grown in an environment that she feels safe in.
I love that she can’t wait to share what they are learning with really creative experiments and fun games as a fifth grader. Older kids often find school to be boring but that’s not been our experience at BEAR academy."
Parent of Sage
"My daughter has been homeschooling in this program for half a year in kindergarten. The curriculum is well-structured, age-appropriate, and engaging. She has grown academically and become more confident and curious about learning.
We are very happy with the experience."
Parent of Sofia
"We have attended so many learning centers in Orange County trying to find the perfect balance of academics and homeschool flexibility for our daughter, and when we found B.E.A.R., we felt we had finally found that balance.
We want our daughter to have a strong academic foundation, but in a nurturing homeschool environment. B.E.A.R. provides exactly that."
Parent of Emily
"Our child feels supported, motivated, and excited to learn."
