In this episode of the Be Unbound podcast, we welcome Nadine Lauffer, a recent homeschool graduate and college-bound student, to discuss her transformative homeschooling journey. Nadine shares her initial struggles comparing her home school experience to those in public school. An experience she had at a homeschool convention shifted her perspective, and she discovered a drive to help other homeschoolers realize their full potential. We dive into the unique benefits and challenges of homeschooling through high school, the importance of community, and Nadine’s passion for encouraging students to explore diverse educational alternatives.
