The Future of Homeschooling with Ashley ...

About this episode

What is the future of homeschooling? The future looks bright!

While homeschooling and at-home learning surged due to school closures, parents are considering continuing this educational method in the future. The freedom and flexibility that comes with learning at home are among the many reasons parents list.

Although parents had little time to figure out how to pivot to at-home learning, parents overcame many obstacles thanks to the vast support they found online. Bloggers, vloggers, online classes, and social media platforms offering a litany of support that most parents didn't know existed until now.

Ashley Wiggers is back to talk with me about the future of homeschooling.
