Thanks for posting! We've been using Abeka History and Science grade 6 this past semester, and I decided to switch to TCI's History Alive for history. I was thinking about switching to BJU for science as we've had success with their math program. I think I will move forward with that after watching this post. History and science are fascinating, but I found Abeka's curriculum to be boring with lots of terms to memorize and not much depth within each topic.

Which one do you like more BJU ir LOE

Is the Consumer Math from BJU a half year or full year curriculum? Thanks.

I love that A Beka reinforces the basic facts from a young age. I like their emphasis on memorization especially in Phonics Special Sounds and Arithmetic Facts. I taught in a Christian School using A Beka and I graduated from PCC and what I will say is yes I agree about it being a level above. I think the reason they go through the basics very quickly in A Beka K5 is because they do have a k3 and k4 problems and they assume the students know the basics already. I am now a mom and looking into homeschooling my preschoolers, thats why I am watching this video. I never looked into BJU, but now I will definately take a look. Thank you!

I have binge watched videos comparing Math U See, Singapore, Math Mammoth and a few others and I can honestly say this is the most helpful video I have seen so far. I think a lot of the people saying that Math U See was too boring, or something similar, would have benefited from watching this video. It seems to me that one of the biggest mistakes is this desire to "check boxes" (I suffer from this), where you want to finish every single worksheet. :)

I know this is an old video, but it is the only review I can find about A Heart 4 You: China. Just a quick question, is it important to have the exact biographies shown on the website? Like does it tell you page numbers or ask questions that make it necessary to use those versions? Just curious if we could substitute other sources. Thanks!

I agree with you- I’d rather dissect a frog. I can’t stand rats!

Thanks for this insight and mentioning the lab kits.

Thanks for these tips as I’m a 2nd year BJU distance learning user for my child and I was trying to do “everything” which does get overwhelming. This is really helpful!

This definitely doesn’t look like my house. Ever. 🫣 😅 (Just kidding!)

I been using abeka math for 4years now. But now i am seeing that my children are getting overwhelm with so many problems.. they do like abeka , but i was considering switching to saxon until i found out TODAY about BJU. So now am confuse.. please help!!! Does BJU do hardcover math books that are not consumable?

Hello. A friend of mine gifted this to me for my grandchildren but the instructions were not included. I came across your video. Can you provide a copy of the instructions?

Maybe I’m not understanding grading completely just yet😅 But how do you come up with the total points possible?

Can they change their electives at the next quarter? Or do they have to follow through for the year? My daughter picked computer science then changed her mind

I'm trying to figure out how to type the 9th grade quarterly report up😅oh lordy imma fail😅

Thanks for the video explanation. We are currently using AAR and it’s working very well but I was wondering if LOE might work even better but I think I’ll stick with AAR right now since it’s working just fine. I actually do like that the writing is minimal bc my kid hates to write.

I know this is an old review, but I’m considering this for next year. Would you say the teachers manual is necessary? Or does the student workbook walk the student through the writing process? (I would rather not do the online program)

Hi. Thank you for all your videos! I normally homeschool/parent led with Abeka- 3 years now. This year we decided to go with BJU Press for every subject. My problem is the DVD’s are blurry. We purchased 2 new DVD -R players and it’s still blurry. Can you please recommend the DVD player you used. Thank you

Thank you for this, I needed guidance and you reminded me ask our God

OMG MY HAVE TOS BOOK ❤

Do you have a video of SWR in action? If not, I'd love to see how to actually use it.
