Why Homeschool?

One of the standout benefits of homeschooling, as we discuss, is its ability to provide a personalized education tailored to each child’s unique needs and interests.

As we share our stories, you’ll hear what brought each of us onto this homeschooling adventure – and whether or not we think it’s actually for everyone!

In this episode we discuss:

• Adapting your child’s education to fit your child (and not the other way around)
• The value of sparking curiosity (and how Rachel does this at home)
• The impact of homeschool on relationships and dynamics within the family
• The challenges and realities of homeschooling (it may be a bed of roses, but those roses sometimes have thorns)
• Handling the pressures of society
• Addressing special needs and accomodations
• Finding joy in the process
• Discovering not just your child’s passions, but your own
• …and so much more!

We share it all openly – and how we each began our journey and learned what was right for our family and our homeschool. We’ll also share some things to consider as you make the choice for your family, too.

Remember: By listening to your instincts and understanding your family’s unique needs, you’ll be well-equipped to make the best decision for your children’s education.
