Following God’s Calling. The Journey to Homeschooling.
In this episode, I’m joined by Jody Defries, a wife and mother to 8 beautiful children, as we talk about her journey to homeschooling. Jody’s journey began when she attended university with a major in music and English. She married the two and went into education, where she discovered through her practicums the trend of frenetic classroom management and the limited resources available to teachers. With a high-energy son, she knew he would be called out for negative behaviour in the classroom. That’s when she heard the call from God to homeschool.
Raising children that don’t fit into the typical school system. The advantages of homeschooling. The importance of getting out in nature when homeschooling.
The history of the traditional school system. Overcoming fears as a reluctant homeschooler. Embracing your own educational pedagogy. Different options for getting started with a homeschool program.Lessons learned from homeschooling. Being the principal of your own home. Structuring your day and activities when homeschooling. Collaborating with other kids and families for a social aspect. The opportunity of homesteading as a family and growing / hunting your own food. Your path with Jesus and your children to homeschooling. Following God’s calling to embrace your gifts and teach your children at home.
