About this listen
'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

PDA child…. Read this!
A fantastic follow on from ‘Changing our Minds’. I love the combined insight into self directed learning and the ‘PDA’ child. Very validating for me and I wish more people would read it because it lays out lots of what I intrinsically know about my child/children and I wish more people understood and could support without questioning so much.

It soothed my anxiety at the beginning of home ed journey.
Fab! I couldn’t thank the author enough. I gained so much knowledge from this book. It really gave me confidence to educated in a way my gut was telling me to. It was very soothing to hear that neurodiverse families have struggles same as mine, and to learn how they cope with specific challenges on daily basis.
