Homeschool Unrefined


Nov 22, 2021

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

 

Deb Shin is a video games marketer turned homeschooler. Deb shares about her homeschool to unschool journeyfrom Charlotte Mason homeschooling to realizing she was inadvertently school-at-home homeschooling, followed by her initial skepticism about unschooling to becoming self-directed unschoolers blending video games and modern media with a literature-rich learning lifestyle. Deb also gives us a glimpse into a "day-in-the-life" and her approach to finding community.
