Our Favourite Home Education Resources uk (w.links) and Q&A

After many requests, here is a video full of our favourite resources we have used through our almost 6 years of home educating/ homeschooling.

We’re fortunate to have many resources available nowadays in the digital age we live in. Home education or homeschooling as it’s referred to can be bolstered with the help of qualified teachers too, like an HSC Chemistry Tutor.  These resources make homeschooling more accessible than ever before.

Some of the resources are specific, and some are left more open. At the end of the video, I have done a Q&A answering all of the questions I received via our instagram question box!

I really hope this video helps, but please remember you have numerous resources available to you that are FREE. (Look out for a FREE home ed resources Vlog coming soon!)

It really should go without saying that including authors and characters of all races, cultures, genders, identities and experiences is perhaps one of the most important educational resources around. For parents also.
