WELCOME TO KINZA ACADEMY!
Kinza Academy is offering an essential and distinguished alternative to public school. Their excellent curriculum will satisfy the needs of any family serious about home-education."
-Hamza Yusuf
"Government schooling is the most radical adventure in history. It kills the family by monopolizing the best times of childhood and by teaching disrespect for home and parents. We don't need state-certified teachers to make education happen--that probably guarantees it won't."
-John Taylor Gatto
"For the sole true end of education is simply this: to teach men how to learn for themselves; and whatever instruction fails to do this is effort spent in vain."
-Dorothy Sayers, The Lost Tools of Learning.
Kinza Academy has been a forerunner in the Muslim home-education and educational movement since 2001.
Regardless of where a child is taught, a quality education requires a stellar curriculum replete with quality material. While there are many books on how to home-school, many people feel overwhelmed with the amount of literature available and often confused upon which approach to take when deciding how to establish home-education. The Academy assumes the laborious task of deciding what to teach and what books to teach from, by providing its families with a well-researched and time-tested curriculum.
According to Hamza Yusuf, the Western classical education is the most similar to the Islamic approach to education. With this in mind, the Kinza Academy curriculum was designed using a classical educational model especially for the Muslim family.
The Kinza curriculum is easy to use and can be taught by any parent with an ounce of patience and a sincere desire to teach their child. It was designed to be re-used for subsequent children, and is therefore cost-effective. For parents who would like to supplement the Western curriculum with quality Islamic books, please visit our Islamic Studies section on the website.
In short, we do the preparatory work, provide you with support, and leave the enjoyment of teaching to you.
