SHOW NOTES
- 00:00 Amanda Reeves, a homeschool adult with a BA in Latin and Greek from Stanford University, believes in the power of classical education and the importance of falling in love with Latin.
- 04:07 My dad's stubbornness and belief in classical education shaped my homeschooling experience and paved the way for me to attend Stanford.
- 07:02 Homeschooling can be successful with the right approach and resources, such as classical education principles, a solid math foundation, and joining a supportive community.
- 13:14 Classical education through homeschooling provides a deep engagement with various subjects, leading to critical thinking and practical preparation for life, although the practicality of learning Latin is questioned.
- 18:37 Spread the word about Christy Faith's homeschool-friendly service provider directory and Amanda Reeves' book "Homeschool Rising" to support homeschooling families.
- 21:20 Studying Latin has immense value as it makes learning other languages easier and trains the brain to approach language systematically and logically, benefiting brain development.
- 23:57 Stanford actively recruited homeschoolers for their independent thought, Amanda Reeves achieved her goal of attending Stanford, and she discusses her transition from homeschooling to Stanford, including academic preparation and a challenging experience in an advanced chemistry class.
- 27:52 Transitioning from homeschool to Stanford was made easier by having the necessary academic tools and equipment, and the social adjustment was positive.
