Episode Description

The notion of homeschooling your child is equal parts enticing and overwhelming. The investments of time and money, potential for social isolation, and family-dynamic considerations are all intimidating. Yet many parents find that a customized homeschool education can nurture a child’s strengths, improve his academic performance, boost his self-esteem, and reduce family stress.

Families that homeschool make the world their classroom, and encourage students to build on their passions through a flexible curriculum and appropriate accommodations. But if your family cannot homeschool, listen up: These academic and psychological benefits need not apply only to homeschooled students. They can be harnessed and applied creatively for children enrolled in mainstream schools as well.
