Course Summary

You've made the decision, but what do you do now? Maybe you are planning your first year with a young learner, or ... Maybe you’re starting a few years in, or even mid-year. Can you really start mid-stream? What does homeschooling look like? Where do you begin? What should you expect? How can you ease the transition for all of you? How do you choose curriculum, and what will this cost? We’ll cover these topics and more in this one-hour presentation.

Course Curriculum

"Vicki has been so helpful to me with homeschooling support, advice, and curriculum."
Mallory S.

Homeschool mom

"I thought homeschool was 8 to 3 sitting in a desk doing what 'school' does. Vicki taught me that I could tailor it to what fit my family and our lifestyle, and that our 'classroom' was wherever the student could focus the best, not just school-at-home."
Angie H.

Homeschool mom of four

"We’ve  had Vicki speak at several events. She always does a fantastic job!  She’s very “real” and offers really great, practical help and encouragement. Our attendees always love her!"
Shelli W.
