We got a great episode for you. Maybe one of the more controversial topics in our Reformed circles here in Canada is homeschooling. We have covered education a lot on the Real Talk and we thought it only fair to cover the topic of homeschooling as well.
Andrea Veldkamp, a homeschooling Mom and previous member of the Alberta Home Education Association joins us to talk about her experiences, the different resources available and yes, we even discuss homeschooling versus Christian Schools.
We hope this episode encourages you and inspires you to think more deeply about homeschooling. We’d love to hear your thoughts.
