54. Unschooling Explained: Maximising Your Kids' Potential Without Classrooms
What if your child never went to school — and still thrived?
In this episode of The Modern Indian Parent, we dive deep into unschooling with Vishruti Shah — a conscious parenting coach and unschooling mom who has never sent her 9-year-old to school. With over 400k parents following her journey online, Vishruti shares how she carved out a unique educational path rooted in self-directed learning, emotional awareness, and freedom from traditional molds.
This episode is a must-listen for modern parents who are questioning whether rote learning, rigid school structures, and academic pressure are truly the only path to success. If you’ve ever searched for:
“What is unschooling?”
“How to homeschool in India?”
“Can kids succeed without going to school?”
“Unschooling vs homeschooling differences”
“Best learning approach for my child”
— this episode answers all that and more.
From busting myths about unschooling to practical tips on building a learning-rich home, Vishruti shows us how to raise children who are confident, self-motivated, and emotionally secure.
