I am an orthopedagogue supporting homeschooling families and a new "COVID mother". Like many people, I thought: “Yeah! Homeschooling, I’m finally going to try it for myself!” But, I quickly fell from my cloud. This Spring, I didn’t “homeschool”, I “schooled at home”.

There is a lot of information circulating on social networks and in the media that creates questions and concerns for many of you. There are differences between distance learning and homeschooling.

Before the fall of 2017, the legal framework governing homeschooling was unclear.

Practicing a sport offers many benefits for young people … and for parents! Exercise is good for the body and mind. It brings a balance in life, allows a better concentration, secretes the happiness hormone and much more!

Our lives have been turned upside down lately - some more than others. Many of my friends take pleasure in homeschooling their kids but, for others, it’s a daunting task alongside their jobs (work overload, etc.). Everyone is doing their best.

I was homeschooled for eight years, from age 11 through to college, before it was a novel way for tiger parents to show off their dynamic commitment to their children’s education.
