Requirements
Come with an open heart and mind, ready to view education in a whole new light!
There is no need for parents to have any skills or knowledge prior to taking this course as it will take them from "clueless" to "well informed and equipped."
Be willing to invest time into educating yourself and avoid the common pitfalls many homeschoolers fall into.
You may want to purchase the Tots to Tweens or the High School Bundle or both depending on the age of your students so you can begin putting your "Real-Life Learning" plan into action.
Description
This course will launch you into viewing "education" in a whole new way! You will see your children as more than just "school students" who need to have curriculum poured into their heads. It will launch you into discovering and creating a whole new way of life, and will give you the needed tools to feel confident to teach your children and transform your relationships with them for the better.
Considering that "Education is not the filling of a head, but the lighting of a fire," this course will equip you to learn how to light a fire that, rather than burning out your children with too much "school at home" will help your family soar above the burn-out norm.
In this course, Barb Shelton, veteran and pioneer homeschooler, who homeschooled their three children for 24 years, from K-graduation, will cover a wide variety of topics that will give you a fresh perspective on "all the above." It will redirect those who have been homeschooling for years and are already burning out, even (especially), and give them new hope and focuses.
Most families merely drag through their children's childhood, which they only get ONE of, missing out on ALL sorts of opportunities for true learning, bonding, and preparation for real life. Soon enough they'll be gone, with lives of their own. Help make these years count in the most meaningful of ways, and launch them into a lifetime of learning.
Who this course is for
This course content is suitable for parents who are just looking in to homeschooling their children, and for parents who have already been homeschooling, but who want more freedom and less stress in the process.
Parents with the goal of getting to the end of homeschooling (graduation from high school) with their children truly educated, knowing how to learn and actually liking to learn.
The content of this course will be surprising to some, challenging to many (until you continue on with it and gain a new understanding of the topics), and relieving to all who stick with it to the end and and complete it! (This is what I have been told by countless parents who have completed it.)
The parent who comes to this course with a willingness to lay down their preconceived ideas of what "education" is will absolutely get the most out of it and learn the most.
Parents who value and want healthy relationships with their children.
