Remove the schedule usually adhered to in public schools. Unschooling means trusting that the learning experiences are all around you so there should be no set schedule to learn. It should happen all the time.
Create learning environments with lots of books, paper, writing utensils and activities. Make sure there are plenty of items that stimulate a child's desire to learn and offer hands on learning experiences.
Join in on the learning fun with your student. Small children embrace learning more when they see adults enjoying the experience. Make sure you are including yourself in the fun learning experience.
Avoid pushing for a desired area of interest. Children tend to learn more and comprehend information better when they are genuinely interested in the topic. Let them guide the learning topics with a supportive structure from you, the teacher.
Access the unschooling progress on a regular basis. Do not be afraid to look for help or suggestions while unschooling your child. There may be times that children seem uninterested in learning and that is natural. If they are falling behind it is time to step in and add a little guidance to keep them on track.
Set goals for your unschooler other than set grade requirements. These goals should be more for your benefit to make sure the child is progressing at a level acceptable for her age. If a 10 year old is having problems with reading, you will have to find activities to help develop this skill, like reading recipe cards.
