About Homeschooling-ideas!

Home >> About Me

My family and meI am a mother of two, in the UK. I have been homeschooling (actually, we 'home educate' over here!!!) for about six years now - and I love it!

Homeschooling Method?

Fair question! What method do I use? I have no idea!!! I try to follow my childrens interests - but sometimes I find a great book or resource that I think they will enjoy and I build a project around it for them. Mainly, I just concentrate on how we work as a family and try to go with the ebb and flow! We have had some inspiring adventures this way - and covered some unusual educational topics!

My Passion

What I am passionate about though, is finding the best resources I can. If I am going to invest time in reading to my children, then I want to read a book that will inspire and educate them. I want that book to open up doors in their imagination and teach them about new ways of living. By following up with related resources I can reinforce that message. For me, that makes for relaxed and enjoyable education.

I set up this website to share with you the resources I have found. Someone in a forum I use has this quote in his footer :

I have learned that God has not called us to see through each other, but to see each other through. (Marsha Walker)

For me that sums it up. I want this site to help see you through. I hope it does. best wishes, Julie
