The Philosophy and Principles of Unschooling
Unschooling is a type of education that is learner-centered and child-led. Unschoolers believe that children learn best when they are free to explore their interests and follow their own passions.

- Children are naturally curious and eager to learn.
- Children learn best when they are free to explore their interests and follow their own passions.
- Children should not be forced to learn things that they are not interested in.
