GINNY WILL BE SHARING "JUMPSTART GUIDE TO HOMESCHOOLING"
As the public schools continue to become less safe physically, emotionally, and spiritually, more and more parents are considering homeschooling. On a daily basis, parents around the country are wanting to bring their children home to learn, but they are often at a loss with where to begin. It can be overwhelming to start the process, but once you get going, homeschooling can be easy, refreshing, and enjoyable! Just like we often get a quick start guide to electronics, this session by Ginny Yurich, homeschooling mother of five and former public school educator, will be providing a quick start guide to starting your children on their home education. You will leave this session believing that you are the best teacher for your child!
PHYLICIA WILL BE SHARING ON "5 WAYS HOMESCHOOLING EQUIPS STUDENTS FOR LIFE"
It is likely most of you were not homeschooled. My passion for home education is not a statement about other educational models. But as a homeschool grad, homeschool counselor, and homeschool mom, this is my area of expertise. If you’re deciding whether to homeschool through high school or whether to homeschool at all, I hope this session relieves some of your fears and gives you the “push” you need.
I worked with homeschool families as a homeschool guidance counselor for a number of years, helping parents create a strategy for those pivotal four years of high school. Over and over, I’ve seen homeschoolers excel in college, career, missions, or entrepreneurship, a constant reminder of just how well homeschooling equips students for real life. And as a homeschool grad myself, I credit my education with what I’ve personally been able to achieve.
