Imperfect Homeschoolers Guide to Homeschooling: How to Teach Kids, Run Home and Overcome Invevitable Challenges of Homeschooling Life
Additional Details
Product Description
If you're going to take the time to read a book about homeschooling, don't you want it to be the wholesome, practical advice of a mom who has "been there and done that?" Author Barbara Frank's warm conversational tone leaves the reader of this book with the feeling that you've just finished a coffee chat where you've been able to ask all your questions and each was met with a knowing smile that implied she knew exactly what you were asking. And each was met with a no-frills answer that empowers the hearer rather than overwhelms. She covers all the basic topics - getting started, teaching techniques and specific subjects, covering the bases, and home organization. Two chapters were particularly helpful - overcoming obstacles and coping with challenges. In these she not only looks at personal habits that can get in the way but also personality-driven roadblocks. Don't be fooled by the "plain Jane" cover or the lack of detailed information about homeschool philosophies or educational approaches readily available elsewhere; this is a must-have book that will help you start out or "regroup" your homeschool into a livable lifestyle. 192 pgs, pb. ~ Janice
