Home Educating with Confidence: How Ordinary Parents Can Produce Extraordinary ChildrenWhen Rick and Marilyn Boyer began homeschooling a decade and a half ago, they didn't know what they were getting into. Fifteen years later, they know exactly what they got into, and they love it! In Home Educating with Confidence, the Boyers share what they have learned through their homeschooling experience. They believe learning is a natural function that can happen better at home than anywhere else and that ordinary parents CAN produce extraordinary children! In an anecdotal style they address everything from getting started to planning for college and career. |
