I was at a loss looking for a minimally biased history curriculum, then I found the Nomadic Professor. Their World History program has been everything I could have hoped for. Great information, interesting videos and flexibility to make it work with our family's needs. Since my son has some significant learning disabilities we took the recommended schedule and stretched it over 8 months. It was the most challenging course he's ever done but he successfully completed it and wants to do World History Part 2 as this year's history.

Same old information presented and taught to 21st century kids! The typical "brick and mortar" school system asks children — who are used to constant stimulation — to sit down and listen to lectures. Which, more often than not, they are incapable of doing. The Nomadic Professor offers a completely different, hands-ON approach to teaching. The Nomadic Professor's lessons are rich with images, videos, and audio lessons. As well as the physical aspect, guided notes, timelines, maps, building a physical "structure of terms" and even curating a museum! As a homeschooling parent, I have learned that my children retain information better by using as many senses during each lesson as possible. Using The Nomadic Professor's detailed outline, my kiddos are watching, they're listening, they're building, they're cutting, pasting, curating, and creating! They are engaged, entertained, and learning! That makes a lot of senses! I can't say enough about this program. It's obvious the creators are well-educated and that they have committed themselves to putting it all into creating a completely new and different way to learn history. They've done an outstanding job! Images: This is just a glimpse of one of the many activities the Nomadic Professor uses to keep kids engaged. Each lesson has a timeline worksheet(s) to fill in with bullet points, topic sentences, or the like. As you go through each lesson and learn more and more about each of the world's peoples, your timeline grows. By the end of the study, the timeline will tell the story of the people in each of the world areas. What a brilliantly effective way to help kids gain and retain knowledge! I love it! Thanks so much, Nomadic Professor!
