166: How We Homeschool with Faryal from Cup of Home

Oct 25, 2021

This is the second episode in our "How We Homeschool" series. We'll be talking with different homeschool parents all season to hear about their philosophies, insights, and experiences. 

 

Let's meet Faryal! She homeschools her 4 kids, ages 7-17. Faryal shares how teaching influenced her philosophy of homeschool, how her homeschool has changed over the years, and how she evolved from a classical home educator to a more relaxed, eclectic homeschooler. Get a glimpse into her curriculum choices, homeschool routines, and the personal practices that sustain her. Plus, we talk about how she's finding community. We have MORE with Faryal available when you join our $5 Squad on Patreon!
