Parents often seek a way to teach mathematics to their children that doesn’t include much parental involvement, because they feel they are “math deficient” themselves. They are surprised when we tell them they are the BEST mathematics instructor for their children. This is one of our most frequent convention conversations, and we would like you to understand how you can tackle this subject and model success—for yourself AND your student. If you recognize yourself in this description, this is the webinar for you.

When Katie's daughter was diagnosed with a brain tumor, their family was uprooted and sent five hundred miles away to St. Jude Hospital. People suggested putting their other children in school because homeschool and cancer are just too hard. The gradual adoption of an unschooling approach to learning created the flexibility that saved their homeschool. It equipped their children to flourish in an impossible situation. Katie will share practical steps to deconstructing a classroom mentality and how to bolster your homeschool to stand firm in the waves of life.
