Episode Description

In this episode from the archive, Carole sits down with Kara Beck, a veteran homeschool mom of eight, who shares her honest journey through decades of homeschooling. They discuss the real-life challenges and victories of homeschooling a large family. You'll hear how Kara Beck tailored education for each child, what she gleaned from her mentoring relationship with Carole, and how she taught her kids to love learning as a lifestyle—not just a subject for a grade.
