'If you are a parent worrying whether self-directed education will work for your child, because you have been told that they have special needs which can only be met in the school system - think again'

Neurodivergent children experience and interact with the world differently to many of their peers. Standard educational systems often fail to adapt to their unique strengths and ways of learning. School, and even the act of learning, can become a source of great anxiety and trauma. Self-directed education offers an alternative to traditional schools that can help neurodivergent children develop at their own pace and thrive.

Blending theory, practical advice and lived experience, clinical psychologist Naomi Fisher introduces the world of self-directed learning and tailoring the learning environment to your child.

This comprehensive overview of self-directed learning is packed with ideas on how to implement it at home and includes interviews from parents of neurodivergent children on how you can make learning differently work for you and your child©2023 Naomi Fisher

A Voice to My Thoughts

This book is so much of what I have been saying for years. Well parts of it were triggering; calling my brain to relive educational nightmares that happened to us, it was also a very validating read. This book helped me to not feel alone and empowered me to make a change for my kids. They deserve everything!

You’re not alone!

We just decided to unenroll my ADHD 10 year old from school. This book was incredibly helpful and made me feel much better about our decision. It also made me realize we are not alone in our experience. I can’t recommend this book enough!
