Born into a family of pedagogues, Gabriel is very familiar with what is happening in public schools. As a child with dyslexia, he struggled especially with grammar and languages; the public school has no idea and no time to teach a child with dyslexia. Even his parents and relatives didn’t realize that Gabriel needed a special teaching approach. For these reasons Gabriel learned almost everything by himself, starting to read books at age 14, and studying from the books they had in their family library of 3000 volumes. As Gabriel married and their first child was born, his wife Gabriella and Gabriel started to home school their child and later their four children. They have not a legal basis as home schooling was not included into the Romanian Educational Law, but the law allowed them to enroll their children in schools outside Romania. Three of their children graduated from Home Life Academy. They founded the Romanian Home-Schooling Association in 2002, in the same they their youngest son born. Since then, they promoted HS in Romania, organized conferences, and are working to legalize HS in Romania. They published two books on home schooling and are helping hundreds of families yearly to start HS and to fight with their struggles with authorities. From a small start in 2002 the Romanian homeschooling movement grew up to several thousand families and is still growing up yearly.
