Tips and resources, along with a whole lot of encouragement, from a homeschool mom who has stuck with it through thick and thin, because even the very worst day homeschooling is lightyears better than the best day at public school.

    Ep. 4: 3 Ways Your Imperfect Home Can Make the Perfect Homeschool.

    Ep. 4: 3 Ways Your Imperfect Home Can Make the Perfect Homeschool.

    Two resource recommendations, one paid and one free, along with stories from my own homeschool life that will encourage you to keep going through the imperfections of real life.

    Show Notes:

    Resource #1: Duolingo and FluentU

    Resource #2: The Great Courses Plus (I said this costs about $15 per month but that is in Canadian dollars. It may be cheaper in the U.S.!)
