Description

It all started with "I'm the Mom; I Don't Have to Know Calculus!". Actually, this eye-opening book, by Joanne Calderwood, mom of 8, has sparked a movement that is taking the home-educating world by storm. Does the title sound too good to be true? It is not, and Joanne will be more than happy to help you understand why:

~ self-learning students are happier and more satisfied with their lives! They even test better on College Board exams without being formally tested in the ebb and flow of normal life.

~ you can CELEBRATE Home-Educating Freedom in your home everyday.

~ the burden of educational responsibility belongs squarely on the shoulders of your students and not on YOU! Of course, younger students will need more parent-directed learning at first.

~ you are not helping your student by spoon-feeding information to ensure there are no "gaps" in your student's education! Learn the secret that leads to Home-educating FREEDOM!

Joanne specializes in helping parents gradually give control of a child's education over to him (or her) more and more as the child matures and shows readiness.

We hope you will join in with your own questions and situations as well as offer your thoughts and encouragement to others who are opting to allow their kids to sit in the educational driver's seat! (Note: this is not an exercise in "un-schooling". Rather, you as parent, choose the curriculum and let your student set the bar as far as performance goes.) It works! And you will enjoy that Home Educating Freedom we were just talking about.

You will be amazed at the results of allowing your student to become self-learning. We promise! C'mon!
