My Definition of ‘Homeschooling’

Yes, I have homeschooled my children. But that doesn’t mean that homeschooling is right for you and your family.

I’m also a degreed, licensed teacher for grades K-12 and have taught in public schools. I also had a child enrolled in a private school.

When I talk about “homeschooling,” I don’t want to imply that I’m against public or private education. I’m not. It may be the best solution for some families. “Homeschooling” to me can mean any supplemental education or tutoring your child receives that helps him or her succeed in school — or life. It can be at home or in a classroom inside a brick-and-mortar school building.

I say all that because I feel like I have something to offer you and your children to get them on track with their education, no matter what form of education that may be. Whether it’s through this blog or one-on-one, I might be able to help. Maybe your child struggles with a structured classroom environment. Perhaps math isn’t their best subject. Many students just need the right environment and the right tactics to help them learn. I can help motivate your child to be the best they can be. Sometimes all you need — or all your child needs — is a fresh, outside perspective on learning.

Then the light bulb clicks on in their mind…and nothing can stop them.

Happy learning,
