How to support them:
Offer genuine compliments, encouragement, and acknowledgment of effort.
Tell them you’re proud and celebrate their achievements with words.
Unschooling
Unschooling is a child-led approach to learning grounded in trust, curiosity, and the belief that education happens naturally through life itself. It moves away from formal curriculum and traditional instruction. Instead, recognising that children are born with an innate desire to learn and make sense of the world.
In an unschooling environment, everyday experiences — conversations, play, projects, exploration, and relationships — become the curriculum. Learning follows the child’s interests, passions, and real-life questions, weaving knowledge through meaningful experiences.
The role of the parent or mentor is to support, not steer — to offer resources, opportunities, and encouragement while trusting the child’s process. The aim is not to replicate school at home, but to nurture self-directed learners who are confident, capable, and deeply connected to their own curiosity.
