Are you feeling the overwhelm of starting to homeschool your teen?
Transcripts, GPA, assigning high school credit, course descriptions, etc. It can feel daunting.
SO I put together a high school guide, full of all those important details!
My book is for do-it-yourselfers, who want a guide with step-by-step tips and helps from a homeschooling mom who has successfully helped her teen get into each of the colleges she applied to, with scholarship offers.
But if you are looking for a large comprehensive guide or specific guidance from a college counselor, then this book is not for you. You would just need to find a college counselor, or buy a technical hard-to-read heavy manual on college if you like. Or if you want to, you could research high school and college on the web and piece it together yourself.
Homeschooling your teen does not have to be that hard!
With:
- 12 high school homeschool planning downloadable printables to make it easier, and a
- Homeschool transcript form for you to just fill in, plus
- Guidance from a mom who has been there, done that!
My book can be your guide, and it is recommended by Lessa Scherrer, a certified college counselor.

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.
