Angel Selden
Angel Selden has been homeschooling her four children, and researching education, great mentorship, neuroscience and child development for 19 years. She earned a BS in psychology in 2003, but more importantly has had many life experiences around the world and read over a thousand great books spanning disciplines and genres, from classic literature to history, natural and social sciences, writing, business and biographies. This has given her a broad network of knowledge with some areas of depth, which she is able to weave into discussions with even her youngest charges; and she learns more and more every day.
Her autobiographical essay 5,000 Stories: One Mother's Quest to Ditch School and Nourish Genius is published in the anthology Why I Love Homeschooling Neurodiverse Children edited by Kathy Oaks and Brynn Steimle and is available here on Amazon.
