Anyone Can Homeschool

The decision to homeschool your child can be a daunting one, but it doesn’t have to be. Anyone can homeschool their child – you don’t need to have a teaching background or experience. With the right resources and support, you can create a successful homeschooling environment for your child. In my book, I outline some of the basics of homeschooling and provide you tips for getting started. So if you’re considering homeschooling, don’t hesitate – it’s a great option for all families! Even yours!

I’ve spent many years telling my readers how important it is to educate their children at home. But there are so many parents who don’t see a way with their current circumstances. Whether it’s a single mom, or both parents work, or a child with special needs, or something else, so many moms and dads are trying to find an alternative to public school but they
just feel trapped.

I have homeschooled through so many of these circumstances and I want everyone to know that it’s possible. That’s where the title of this book came from. I wholeheartedly believe ANYONE can do this.

Part One of this book starts by explaining that homeschooling is not like public school. It’s very individual and flexible. That’s the most important part to understand.

Next, several chapters are devoted to real-life situations. I’ve explained how I homeschooled in difficult circumstances and have also interviewed other homeschool parents to get their stories and tips.

Part Two gets down to the details of homeschooling: state laws, withdrawal from public school, choosing curriculum, dealing with the hard days, and more.

This book is for everyone who needs an alternative to public or private school. It’s not too late to begin homeschooling! Let me show you how!

Why I Think Anyone Can Homeschool

Homeschooling is a great alternative to public or private school, and I think anyone can do it. It’s very individual and flexible, which makes it a good fit for many different kinds of people. Additionally, there are many resources available to help you get started, and I’m here to help with that too! So if you’re feeling overwhelmed or stuck, or if you want to start homeschooling but just don’t know if you can do it, then grab my book! It will explain to you why you are undoubtedly equipped to homeschool your child!

A few things you will learn in this book are:

Anyone can homeschool. You don’t need any credentials, only the desire to want the best for your children. And maybe a desire to educate your kids. Because of this, homeschooling has become increasingly popular in America since it was first legalized by a few states back in the 70’s. It used to be mostly fundamentalist Christians who homeschooled because they wanted their children indoctrinated before they learned anything else. But now, all kinds of families are doing it, for many different reasons.

If you feel intimidated about homeschooling, this book is for you. You’ll learn so much about this very topic, including:

What is homeschooling?
How do you begin to homeschool?
What about socialization?
Curriculum, schedules and grading
Why should I homeschool?
What if my child has special needs?
What will other people think of me?
How do you decide what to teach your child?
What are the 5 important rules for starting homeschooling?
How do you find out about other people who are doing it?
Do I have to know everything right now or can I learn as we go along?

You will gain all the answers to these questions and so much more. My goal is to have your questions answered and you ending this book feeling confident in your decision to homeschool your children.

I know you can do it, and it’s about time you know you can do it too.

Read the reviews

If you don’t think you can homeschool but have had any sort of desire to THIS IS THE BOOK FOR YOU. I am about to start my second year of homeschooling & I’ve learned some valuable information that I’ll be implementing. From the book-

“With confidence, support, and a great stack of books, any parent can be their child’s teacher. The parent who didn’t graduate high school, the parent who can’t remember their algebra, the parent who works full time, the parent who feels they can’t afford it, the parent with disabled children, and even the grandparent who is raising their grandkids — they can absolutely do it. YOU can do it.”

First, let me say that this book belongs in the hands of every parent who has considered homeschooling for even a second. If your curiosity was peaked, but you thought “it’s not for me” because you work full time, you don’t have another adult in the home, or you just feel that you lack what it takes – you will find what you need in Anyone Can Homeschool.

What Nicki gets right is that she gives a lot of practical advice (and lots and lots of examples from other homeschoolers who worked around obstacles), but she also builds this advice on top of a solid foundation. If you are just starting to think about this, you are probably thinking about curriculum and schedules and how to not get “behind.” You will get the answers you need in this book, but you will also get something much more essential and valuable for successful homeschooling.

The key to homeschooling is not finding the materials or discovering the perfect formula for integrating your full-time job. What will make you a success as a homeschooler is discovering your unique place as a parent or grandparent in your child’s life and how that enables you to give the very best education possible. THIS is the most valuable part of the book – Nicki has me saying, “Amen” on page after page.

But don’t worry – there is plenty of “meat” about schedules, meal planning, teaching on a budget, special needs, and finding support. I know that is the reason you will buy this book – and then you will read it and walk away more empowered and confident than you believed you could be about teaching your own kids.

As a single mom who only achieved getting a GED, this was a great encourager. I found practical tips on how to homeschool my kids. Reading other people’s struggles and how they overcame them helps me see that I’m not alone. I don’t have to fit into someone else ‘box’ to educate my kids. Easy read with very practical and encouraging advice. So glad to have this as I start this school year.
