School Bullying—Distance Learning Can Be Your Child's Alternative
We've all heard about school bullying. Maybe we personally experienced it when we were younger. As parents, we want to make sure our children don't experience it now. Distance learning can be your child's alternative. Students, parents, counselors, administrators and teachers have begun to recognize that distance learning for K-12 students is transformative--providing talented, tormented kids with a safe haven from the schoolyard bully.
 
Learning Styles Quiz
Whether you are a newcomer or a seasoned veteran (I won't say "old-timer"), taking a learning styles quiz will help you understand and build a curriculum around your children's learning styles. As we all know, homeschooling is not just a method of education, it's a lifestyle. We want our children to become lifetime learners not only because it's a wonderfully natural way to be, but because they will need this if they are to keep up in this fast-changing world. The best way to become a lifetime learner is to develop a passion for learning. The best way to develop that passion is to make learning fun, relevant and fascinating.
 
Is Private Tutoring Right for Your Child? 
Our goal as homeschooling parents is to provide our children with quality one-on-one education. It is widely accepted that one-on-one tutoring is probably the most effective method to improve academic achievement. That's why a WyzAnt tutor can be a valuable resource for your child's educational, athletic and musical endeavors.

Ah, those lazy, hazy, crazy days of summer. Maybe your family has a camping trip planned. Certainly there will be picnics and get-togethers, and plenty of time for the kids to enjoy the great outdoors. But did you ever consider that summer is also a great opportunity to get "outside" of your regular homeschool routine?
