Today I'm tackling some of the questions that have piled up in my inbox and DMs lately from listeners and subscribers. And since a bunch of those inquiries are related to the topic of homeschooling, I’ll answer those questions first, including…

  1. What, exactly, are your responsibilities as a homeschool mom
  2. How soon should you start formal lessons?
  3. How to schedule lessons for multiple students in a broad range of ages
  4. How to stay on top of chores while still doing lessons
  5. What kind of records and papers to keep and what can be safely thrown away
