Tune into this week’s episode as hosts Tatiana Fallon and Heidi Christianson delve into the dynamic landscape of homeschooling methodologies. This episode provides a detailed look at four distinct educational approaches: classical education, leadership education, traditional education, and the Charlotte Mason method. They explore the evolution from the structured, history-focused classical method inspired by “The Well-Trained Mind” to the more fluid and flexible leadership education, which emphasizes child-led learning and real-world application. Join Tatiana and Heidi as they share personal stories and practical advice on integrating these methodologies to cultivate a rich, adaptable homeschooling environment.
