The Homeschool Advantage is a podcast about reclaiming learning as a way of life.
Hosted by educator, author, and instructional leader Bex Buzzie, the show explores how families, teachers, and educational leaders can support meaningful learning—whether children are homeschooled, enrolled in public or charter schools, or navigating a blend of both.
Drawing from over two decades in education and recent work in educational leadership, Bex brings together voices from across the learning landscape, including homeschool families, classroom teachers, curriculum creators, microschools, co-ops, and education innovators.
This is not a podcast about choosing the “perfect” system.
It’s about partnership, posture, and presence.
Whether you’re a parent supporting learning at home, a teacher rethinking instruction, or an educator seeking deeper alignment between school and life, The Homeschool Advantage offers thoughtful conversations, practical insights, and a return to the basics of how learning actually happens.
Because homeschooling isn’t a location.
It’s a posture.

Veldorah began working with Write from the Heart in 2006 and took over as director in 2011. She oversees the classes and enjoys creating new curriculum and tools for student writers. She speaks at homeschool and teacher conferences about writing and helping students find their voices
Top 3 Take-Aways!
- In a world that is trying to take away our voice, and indoctrinate their voice in the minds of the youth, the importance of teaching the youth to articulate themselves in this climate is vital.
- Writing is not just a technique but an art that empowers students to express their voice; giving them the ability to write about things they are passionate about to support their voice and their story.
- Being able to communicate is the goal, and being able to do that above the rules of writing is way more important. Once the student identifies what they value, and can express that then the rules come in as a way to bolster their voice to make it clearer and more passionate; the structure then helps to convince or be better understood.

Intro
Dan Lewer CEO and Founder of History4humans is here today to talk to us about stories of the past and how we make sense of the world through them. His passion and inspiration is contagious bringing the subject to life!
Top 3 Gold Nuggets
- Stories are how we make sense of our world and connect our present world with our past.
- When teaching topics having an anchor from which we begin our lesson a type of hook that can engage our students allows us to then unpack the entire story and add other subjects to create a dynamic multidisciplinary unit, showing how everything is intertwined and not compartmentalized but holistic learning.
- Present and future success will require lots of self direction and self leading and the ability to reinvent yourself and adapt and this is a staple of the strength of homeschool students.
