Angelina Jolie is overseeing the education of her children Maddox, 16, Pax, 14, Zahara, 12, Shiloh, 11, and twins Vivienne and Knox, aged nine.
On Wednesday People reported the 42-year-old beauty has the kids home schooled inside their new $24m mansion in Los Feliz, California.
They are learning all the basics like reading and arithmetic, but are also taking on languages classes and learning musical instruments.
And they don’t all speak the same languages.
In 2016 she told BBC: ‘All the kids are learning different languages.
‘I asked them what languages they wanted to learn and Shi is learning Khmai, which is the Cambodian language, Pax is focusing on Vietnamese, Mad has taken to German and Russian, Z is speaking French, Vivienne really wanted to learn Arabic, and Knox is learning sign language.’
The People source added: ‘They have tutors for all kinds of subjects, including different languages and instruments.
‘The kids are also very physically active. They like soccer and love skateboarding, and also take self-defense classes,’ said the source.
Her ex, Brad Pitt, sees the kids on the weekends, which he ‘treasures,’ the source noted. The Allied actor lives only 10 minutes away from his family.
At a screening of First They Killed My Father in early December, she told People: ‘It bothered me how little I was taught in school.
‘I do worry about my children’s education.
‘I homeschool partially because they are from around the world and it’s very … I didn’t want them to have the same education I had when it came to Vietnam or Cambodia.’
As far as how Jolie spends her time, the source added that she is very focused on the kids. ‘Angelina is busy with everything she is doing, including being a super mom to her kids.
‘But she is doing fine and working with Brad on ways to continue their lives so everyone is happy.’ The divorce is not yet finalized. But it is ‘moving forward.’
The siren has been ‘working out time for him to be with the kids, which he treasures.’
‘The process has been difficult for him,’ said a source. ‘But he is OK and remains committed to his family.’
It was added that he has dated already but she has not it seems.
On Friday Angie took some of her kids to the Bangsokol: A Requiem for Cambodia at BAM (Brooklyn Academy of Music) event in NYC.
She was joined by daughter Shiloh and son Maddox.
The brunette bombshell wore a clever beige trench coat over a white top and dark slacks with her long locks worn down. The star appeared completely wrinkle free as she wore minimal makeup.
She posed with author of First They Killed My Father Loung Ung as well as designer by Rithy Panh and composer Him Sophy.
Later the Salt star was joined by Executive Producer, Brooklyn Academy of Music Joseph V. Melillo, President, Brooklyn Academy of Music Katy Clark, and Executive Director, Cambodian Living Arts, Phloeun Prim.
Maddox apparently stayed home to take care of Vivienne who had a tummy ache, according to a source with People.
Earlier on Saturday they hit a screening of Star Wars: The Last Jedi in Manhattan.
The actress-director lived up to her fashionista image, donning a wintry ensemble of a textured wrap dress with a tan belt with heeled black boots.
The beauty accessorized with black sunglasses with a black leather handbag with metallic buttons. She was impeccably made up with her dark brown locks slightly parted to the left as she walked with her quartet of kids, who were bundled up amid the frosty conditions.
The family seemed to be in a great mood as they made their way through the city.
They were coming off a big night in the Big Apple Friday, where they visited Cipriani Wall Street for the 2017 United Nations Correspondents Association Awards, where Angelina accepted the honors for 2017 UNCA Global Citizen of the Year.
The Academy Award-winning actress, accepting her honors, said that people have an obligation to envision themselves ‘in the struggles of others,’ and fight ‘their fight for human rights and freedom as your fight,’ according to People.
