Join host Shelly Stockton, a seasoned homeschooling mom of 25 years, as she explores the world of homeschooling with  Michelle Bertrand, a homeschooling veteran from British Columbia, Canada, with 22 years of experience (10 years in Classical Conversations).

Michelle shares her unexpected journey into homeschooling and the power of mentorship.

Together they discuss 15 essential skills for effective teaching and learning:
* Five Core Habits
* Five Common Topics
* Five Canons of Rhetoric

Michelle shares real-life examples of applying these skills in homeschooling and the importance of teaching children how to think rather than what to think. 

Discover how to simplify your teaching approach, engage your children in meaningful learning, and cultivate critical thinking skills. Whether you're a seasoned homeschooler or just starting out, this episode offers valuable insights and practical strategies to enhance your homeschooling experience.

Tune in to learn how to "do less things better" and embrace the art of learning alongside your children!
