Tina Freitas is a devoted Christian, wife, mother, and passionate advocate for homesteading, homeschooling and family values – and co-host of the Making the Argument podcast. Married to her high school sweetheart, Nick Freitas, since 1999, Tina has homeschooled their three children—Lillyana, Luke, and Alexandria—in Culpeper, Virginia. What began as a practical choice due to Nick’s military service as a Green Beret evolved into a deep commitment to fostering independent thinking, strong character, and faith-based education in their children. Tina’s homeschooling journey, grounded in her Christian worldview, emphasizes nurturing children’s unique gifts while equipping them to navigate the world with confidence and conviction.
With a warm and relatable approach, Tina shares practical insights and encouragement for homeschooling parents, drawing from over a decade of experience. As a speaker, she offers guidance on creating a flexible homeschool environment, balancing family life, and empowering children to thrive academically and spiritually. Tina’s perspective complements her husband’s advocacy for liberty and education freedom, making her a trusted voice for families seeking to raise principled, engaged citizens.
