Reigniting the Passion for Learning

Sponsored by Learnlife.

“We want our kids to be happy” is the biggest lie told by parents. What they really want is for their kids to study! However, 21st-century education is significantly disconnected from real life, and as result, most kids and teens are bored at school and have very little interest in studying or learning.

How do you learn best? Is it when someone chooses the subject for you, directs the process and then tests you to see if you can regurgitate that information? 

Or, do you learn best when you are in control of the direction your learning takes, being deeply engaged and passionate, going at your own pace and asking for help and support as and when you need it?

While the first option seems an obvious choice, traditional education simply cannot change fast enough to accommodate this way of learning. Teens continue to graduate from school totally under-prepared for the world outside and will be searching for what sparks their passion for years if not decades.

The Learnlife education model offers a more direct route to that, and it could be life changing for them.

Experience a Better Way of Learning

Learnlife has been selected from more than 3,000 innovations worldwide as one of the top 100 education innovations to watch in the year 2023 by HundrED.

At Learnlife, individualized programs are directed by learners themselves, based on their passions. This means that learners are encouraged to find the things that get them engaged and curious, accompanied all the while by supportive learning guides and 360-degree feedback. Progression to deeper levels of learning and responsibility are not automatically based on where your birthday falls, but on the level of maturity.

The results are revolutionary—kids previously uninterested and disengaged have become excited about learning.

Instead of memorization and multiple-choice, they get hands-on experience. Deep learning and core skills that reflect real life, instead of subjects separated in a way that the real world does not recognize. Students develop the independent skills to learn and grow, instead of cramming information for tests that they will never care to remember.

Learnlife has found a way to reignite the passion for learning and a vision for the future even in the most bored teenagers.

Full-Time Programs as an Alternative to Traditional Schools

Learnlife offers a full-time alternative to traditional education for primary and secondary years at two of its centers: the Urban Hub and the Eco Hub. The programs run in English, and also have inclusive modules for neurodiverse learners with ADHD and Dyslexia.

Afterschool Programs, the New Way of Learning Open to All

For those who are not able to be with Learmlife full time, but would like to have a connection with the lifelong learning community, you can join the vibrant Afterschool Programs, open to all ages and all levels of English. Your teens can start experimenting with fashion, digital carpentry, yoga, programming, cooking, mindfulness, art, 3D printing, etc.

This is hands-on learning, where you can switch around to try different things at Learnlife’s professional studios in Barcelona, and if you join the beach-front Eco Hub in Castelldefels, the younger kids participate in surfing, skateboarding, music, robotics and theater. All classes are in English. There are also online modules, classes for the whole family, as well as yoga and parenting classes for adults. There is a full refund guarantee if you don't enjoy your first class.

Summer Camps: Graffiti and Sand Cities

Another way your child can explore their passions is to join the summer camp in June and July, it offers a diverse and open international community of learners with activities ranging from doing graffiti art in Barcelona to building cities of sand on the beach in Castelldefels.

The Afterschool Programs registration is currently open for the second and third terms of 2023, and Summer Camp registration opens in March 2023.
