“We can best help children learn, not by deciding what we think they should learn and thinking of ingenious ways to teach it to them, but by making the world, as far as we can, accessible to them, paying serious attention to what they do, answering their questions -- if they have any -- and helping them explore the things they are most interested in.”
~ John Caldwell Holt

Methodology
How Do We Do It?

Unfortunately, in many circles the general impression of unschooling seems to be that children are just left to themselves and that parents don’t have much to do with their education. Nothing could be further from the truth. Unschooling parents work just as hard, or even harder than parents who home educate with a curriculum. They are required to be innovative, curious, and flexible. They must be willing to help their child find, research and/or access whatever is is they are currently interested in, even if it is not something they are interested in themselves.  Unschooling parents are facilitators more than teachers, and they are often as much of a learner as their children.
