About this listen
We survived our first week of homeschooling while working full-time jobs, and despite some bumps along the way, it feels right – like it was meant to be.
• Children seem happier and more energetic compared to when they attended public school
• Figuring out curriculum has been challenging – Mi Academy has pros and cons
• Customizing education to each child's needs is incredibly rewarding
• Oldest daughter's ADHD presents differently than teachers described, allowing us to adapt our approach
• Setting up a consistent schedule is crucial for success
• Finding balance between structured learning and flexibility
• Socialization concerns are completely unfounded – the kids have had more meaningful social interactions this week than before
• Taking breaks and getting personal time is essential for maintaining patience
• The evening guilt of not spending enough time with kids has disappeared
• Desks ordered to replace kitchen table schooling after a week of clutter
If homeschooling is something on your heart but seems impossible with your work schedule, we're here to tell you it might be more doable than you think. Follow along each week as we document how it's going and share the good, the bad, and the ugly.
