This week, as children in most countries are staying home, we are reposting Maria's discussion with Sharon Hancock, who has been a homeschool teacher and parent for over fifteen years.

While schools will re-open and life will eventually get back to normal, right now, parents and educators have an opportunity to design a more flexible and personalized learning journey for students at home.

We hope this conversation will offer parents and educators new insights to help them guide their children to navigate their new reality as they continue to learn at home.

The heart of homeschooling is not about the academics and the books; it's the intangibles that influence and mold the children, the things that enable them to grow, mature, and succeed, dream big, overcome obstacles, and explore their broader interests.
