Homeschooling High School with College in Mind

Autor Betsy Sproger
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 13 aug 2019
Are you considering homeschooling your teen or are you already doing that? Many of us considering high school feel overwhelmed with all the details involved. Transcripts, GPA, assigning high school credit, course descriptions, etc. It can feel daunting. And that is why many families are leery of taking on high school at home. So after homeschooling my dear daughter through high school, I put together a guide, full of all those important details for high school. I want to encourage families to homeschool their teens, and get the benefits that we got doing that, for my daughter and for our family. My book can make your planning easy. With it in hand, you can concentrate on making the high school years at home nurturing and rich. And you can keep your own homeschooling style all along the way. And be able to follow your teen's interests. This guide includes over 100 high school electives and activities for your teen to explore. It is not just for those who are aiming towards college. It is for any teen who is learning at home. We all want to help our teens grow and give them the important guidance and encouragement as they grow into young adulthood. I added 12 high school homeschool planning downloadable printables to make it easier, and a transcript form for you to just fill in. (It is the kind of transcript form that the colleges and others are used to seeing.) This book is written in an easy-to-read conversational tone, as if you are sitting down to a cup of tea or coffee with me. And if your teen is aiming towards college, my book has chapters on that. You can homeschool your teen your way. My book can be your guide, and is recommended by Lessa Scherrer, a certified college counselor and a homeschooling mama of 3. Homeschooling High School with College in Mind, 2nd edition includes: >Chapter 1 - Skipping Public School Route >Chapter 2 - 101 Reasons to Homeschool High School >Chapter 3 - Researching College and Getting Started >Chapter 4 - Planning High School with College in Mind >Chapter 5 - Choosing Your High School Curriculum >Chapter 6 - Three Ways to High School Credit >Chapter 7 - Making Your Teen's Transcripts >Chapter 8 - High School Electives and Activities >Chapter 9 - Making Homemade Courses >Chapter 10 - Writing a Winning College Essay >Chapter 11 - Course Descriptions and Reference Letters >Chapter 12 - The Common Application >Chapter 13 - Preparing Your Teen for College Writing >Chapter 14 - Dealing with College Testing SAT/ACT >Chapter 15 - Top Sources for College Scholarships >Chapter 16 - Dealing with "Those Questions" from Others >Chapter 17 - Don't Forget the FUN! > About the AUTHOR: Betsy is a writer and blogger, but most importantly is mom to her now 24 year old daughter, who got into each of the colleges on her list, with scholarship offers.

Betsy is a writer and blogger, but most importantly is mom to her now 24 year old daughter, whom she and her husband homeschooled starting in kindergarten. They found homeschooling to be the best way for their daughter to learn, as they could not only teach their family's faith based values day by day, but also tailor her learning to her individual needs. Betsy continued homeschooling her through high school, when she began writing about their journey on her blog, BJ's Homeschool at https://www.bjshomeschool.com. During that time she helped her daughter get into college, doing the research on college admissions for homeschoolers all around the U.S. Her daughter got into each of the colleges on her list, with scholarship offers, which was such a blessing. Betsy then shared tips for doing your own high school journey in her first edition of "Homeschooling High School with College in Mind". And her daughter did the initial formatting and appeared on the cover of the first edition! Later, in this 2nd edition shown above, Betsy updated her book to include new information on things like the Common College Application, with her step-by-step guide. She also added new chapters on finding college scholarships, test prep for SAT or ACT, and more, which are all in the second edition available here on Amazon. Betsy is a long time homeschooler and a former Occupational Therapist who came home to educate her 2e daughter and to be there as a full time mom. She lives in WA state and enjoys gardening, knitting/hand arts with church friends and lots of hiking, with her camera in tow. Her daughter is now a college grad, who earned a B.A. in Communications, and is working in her field. Betsy's mission is to help and encourage moms and to make homeschooling high school easier and more fun, for any and all high school teens, whether they are headed to college or not.
