As a homeschooling teacher, it is important to unlearn the idea that learning should always be fun! Learning can be painful because it takes us out of our comfort zone. So we really need to teach our kids to embrace both the discomfort and excitement of learning. And as challenging as it is, we need to prepare our kids to pivot on a dime, to be able to change directions. The key here is to teach our kiddos to become lifetime learners.
