Private School at Safari Kid – A Unique Approach to Learning

At Safari Kid, we invite our students to become a partner in their own learning with our use of the Socratic Method of teaching. Meeting the Common Core standards is just a part of what our students will accomplish. Through a tailored method of careful questioning based on learning objectives to be met, a rich yet natural discussion that promotes critical thinking and problem solving will ensue daily among the teacher and classmates.

A loving and nurturing environment in which all members of the team respect one another is created, so that trust is built, and students feel comfortable to share freely. During these powerful discussions, engagement is high, and learning becomes an active sport, in which reasoning and logic are continuously utilized and encouraged.

Through this Socratic process, the children begin to feel ownership of their learning. However, the real trophy in this sport of learning is their gains in confidence knowing their voice and their ideas are important. They are on their way to being leaders, entrepreneurs, and trailblazers of the future. Our students form a positive relationship with the idea of education. They realize the attainment of knowledge is a social sport that can be enjoyable when the right set of coaches are there to guide them through it and cheer them on!
