Simple Homeschool Teaching Strategies | Natalie Burns, Homeschool Teaching Simplified | The Strike a Balance Podcast for Working Homeschool Moms, S3 E109

About the Episode On the Strike a Balance Podcast for Working Homeschool Moms, I chat to Natalie Burns from Homeschool Teaching Simplified. Natalie is a wife and homeschooling mom of 3 on her 2 acre homestead in BC, Canada. As a certified teacher for over 11 years, she taught public high school biology and dance before shifting her desire to homeschool her own children. For the first years she worked with a local homeschool academy as a support teacher before starting her own business, Homeschool Teaching Simplified.

I love Natalie's practical and positive approach to homeschool teaching. And she has some really useful strategies to share that you can implement immediately in your homeschool.
