I hadn't heard of unschooling until I joined this forum. If I understand it correctly, the difference between unschooling and homeschooling is that there is no set curriculum? I was a teacher for many years before becoming a counselor. I can say with certainty that the subjects students were the subjects they learned most quickly with a thirst for more. As a teacher, I always tried to give students the opportunity to learn about their passions while at the same time hitting those things I was supposed to be teaching. I do like learning how many different ways there are to be a learner! Thanks for sharing!

Yes, unschooling is not using a curriculum,
unless the child happens to ask for a curriculum for a certain subject.
There are not set expectations of what they need to learn that year.
It is interest and passion based.
Thank you for the explanation! It's fascinating to learn about!
