Product Description

Chandra Byers is a homeschooling mother of six, and David Byers has a Ph.D. in education and teaches education at the college level. Their oldest is now attending college on a scholarship, after having been homeschooled all her life. With their combination of experience and expertise, they show us how parents can continue to homeschool their children through high school in subjects for which they are not experts. Not only that, but they demonstrate how these home-taught children are fully prepared for college and are often superior performers. Not only has Dr. Byers helped prepare his own homeschooled children for college, but he has seen first-hand how many homeschooled students have done in college. They are both from Nebraska.

"Loaded with useful information, from suggestions on how to select the appropriate courses to teaching students how to deal with typical teenage distractions .

The Byers smoothly mix practical suggestions for creating a high school curriculum with traditional and non-traditional educational theory.

Thoroughly approached and smoothly delivered .

Together the Byers have achieved a worthwhile read for any parent venturing into the uncharted waters of homeschooling their high school child in preparation for a successful college experience."
