Coming from a long lineage of Viking Bunnies this mama raises her Fluffle of young Freedom Fighters.

Gervi Héra Vitr is a home school in a community of homeschoolers.
Here we don’t separate theory from application or learning from life.

About Gervi Héra Vitr

Gervi Héra Vitr Labs is the classroom repository for our school.
All relevant educational materials are here for our two students:

  • Anton: Captain Lugaru, 15 — the world moves when he decides.

  • Zoey: ZueZue kHavok, 2 — nothing is still until she leaves.

Curriculum Focus

All subjects at Gervi Héra Vitr Labs are pursued through daily inquiry, hands-on experimentation, and iterative improvement.
Our curriculum is deeply interdisciplinary, built on the foundation of formal philosophy: mathematics, reason, and scientific method.

Core domains of focus are:

  • Philosophy: inductive and deductive reasoning, formal logic, and scientific method:

    • Propositional calculus, structured reasoning, and formal proof;

    • Mathematics (algebra, geometry, trigonometry, and calculus);

    • Chemistry, physics, biology, and astronomy;

    • Psychology, history, sociology, and economics.

  • Humanities: language, literature, and performing arts.

  • Applied sciences to generate testable assets proving theory:

    • Software engineering, artificial intelligence, and robotics;

    • Business, entrepreneurship, marketing, and commerce;

    • Law, government, leadership, ethics, and justice.

Exact sciences are always coupled with applied sciences and field work.

Who This Is For

This site is intended for multiple audiences:

  • School boards, education reviewers, and academic committees evaluating homeschool initiatives;

  • Fellow homeschooling families and educators seeking tested curriculum models, learning strategies, and collaboration;

  • University faculty, technologists, and researchers who may wish to track Anton’s journey or explore his endeavors;

  • Students and parents looking for independent, secular paths for gifted learners unaffiliated with any religion.

Captain Lugaru, 15

Anton’s hacker handle is Captain Lugaru. Another munchkin would simply call him Captain. He is an independent learner whose interests include artificial intelligence, mathematics, and philosophy. His curriculum blends theoretical depth with practical implementation, and every subject is approached with high intellectual ambition and scientific discipline. Captain aspired to become a doctor in early childhood, pediatrician or pediatric scholar. A few years ago he experienced formal testing interaction with ChatGPT. The Machine could speak-and act-in ways no other ever had. Captain, Took an interest in the machine; he knew that it would be the future of technology. This experience left an impactful and lasting impression on the young Captain.

Captain learns exact and applied sciences, writes code, trains machine learning models, studies formal proofs-and maintains this site alongside his primary mentor and father, Vadim (rdd13r). Like most self-driven people Captain does not like to be taught. rdd13r designs the learning curriculum for Captain and both review then implement it iteratively. Each new subject begins with rdd13r properly introduce a subject, such as the "preferred" approach to formal theory of proof, set theory (i.e, Russell’s paradox), category theory (i.e, monad), or existential phenomenology. He then delivers the object in production and completeness comparative analysis against real-world applications. The last phase of each objective is comparative analysis and testing against real world applications.

Gervi Héra Vitr blends high school and college-level material into long-term research journeys — avoiding subject-hopping, frequent quizzes, and tests that do little to deepen real learning.

ZueZue kHavok, 2

Zoey (ZueZue kHavok) is Anton’s younger sister. She is a very active toddler. While her care is primarily in their mother’s hands, Zoey and Anton learn together on a daily basis Both gain from the time they spend learning together.

Educational Philosophy

Our educational philosophy is based on the following principles:

  • Learning is not just preparation for life, but a mode of life itself.

  • Giftedness requires structure, challenge, and freedom in equal measure.

  • Ethical reasoning, technical depth, and personal responsibility must grow coterminously.

Curriculum

Our goal is not simply to meet academic standards, but to build intellectual resilience, creative confidence, and principled mastery — traits that cannot be outsourced, templated, or rushed. The outcome is a human being ready to build, care, and lead.

Role of Parents and Mentors

The primary role of parents and mentors is to prepare children for the real world. Parents start by providing a safe and nurturing environment for learning when children are young. Most parents falter in the later stages. By pre-teenage years children should be exposed to real life in a managed and controlled setting. At this young stage kids are cognitively ready to grasp foundations of personal finances, business, health, and safety. At the beginning of teenage years children should be well on the way to independent personal leadership and independent personal leadership and fully autonomous decision-making. Yet ALL American public and private schools completely fail here producing insulated, risk-averse children governed by institutional fear. This occurs because one cannot teach what one hasn’t learned.

First fundamental theorem of life:

Poverty is hereditary.

— John Kenneth Galbraith
Often attributed to.

​

Children must:

  1. Personally and physically experience dependence on oneself, through decisions and consequences of their own actions.

  2. Be fully and irreversibly immersed into real adult life interactions and shenanigans.

  3. Be explicitly shown all aspects of current environment from extreme poverty to extreme wealth.

  4. Rigorously introduced to concrete knowledge and given hands-on practice to navigate:

    • adult psychological barriers (i.e, social norms) and physical barriers (i.e, tribal separation);

    • financial, business, commerce and marketing barriers (i.e, assets versus liabilities, role of money);

    • personal and collective health and safety barriers (i.e, nutrition, diseases, accidents, and illnesses).

It is parents' sacred duty to safely, progressively, and iteratively immerse children into the real world. To help children attain equality with their parents and surpass them before they are old enough to become parents.
