Episode 213

Imagine a homeschooling journey where learning side by side builds your child’s capacity to learn and ignites a love of lifelong learning at the same time.

That’s what we’re getting into on the podcast this week!

Jean shares three stories from homeschooling mums just like you who discovered their passions through U.S. history, world history, and science.

As a homeschooler, you are not solely responsible for imparting all the knowledge your children need to know about the world.

When you create shared experiences that model deep learning, your children will develop the capacity to learn and the curiosity to explore.

And this is what it’s all about!

Not all who wander are lost.

~J.R.R. Tolkien
