In this episode of Homeschool Indiana, Courtney Nalin interviews Dr. Jay Wile, a former nuclear chemistry professor turned homeschool curriculum developer. Jay shares his insights on the strengths of homeschool graduates, the value of hands-on, curiosity-driven learning, and the importance of tailoring education to each child’s unique needs. He emphasizes that parents are best equipped to guide their children’s learning and reassures them that imperfect homeschooling often surpasses traditional education. The conversation also touches on integrating a biblical worldview into science education and creating an engaging, multi-age curriculum.
