Five years of teaching led him to realize the timeline imposed on students was incongruent with the way learning most often happens. His experiences drove him to explore learning methods which honor the learner, the teacher, and learning itself. He now unschools his three children with his wife and writes parenting and education advice for families on his website.Wildlings Forest School Contact DetailsWebsiteFacebookInstagramYoutube PinterestLinked In?
