The Homeschool Advantage Podcast

Homeschool Students Surpass their Public School Peers Hands Down with Janna Koch Community Manager at Book Shark.

Intro 
Janna Koch is the Community Manager. Janna used BookShark curriculum with her three daughters for several years, and she eventually joined the team as a convention representative, helping homeschoolers choose the right programs for their families at in-person events. Now she assists homeschoolers across the world in her new role as a community manager and host of the BookShark-sponsored podcast, Homeschool Your Way. She loves it when a parent, unsure of their ability to homeschool their child, discovers they are more than capable with the right curriculum! 
Top three takeaways 
Homeschool students surpass their public school peers because homeschooling teaches them to love to learn.  
With the book shark curriculum you are not pigeon holing your child to fit into an age group but rather a reading level that is not age specific because children learn at different rates. Which lessens comparison amongst peers.  
There is no right or wrong way or right or wrong time to homeschool, you are able to tailor this curriculum to your lifestyle.

Learning should be specific and personal with Author Lynn Dean of Discover Texas Online

Intro 
Author Lynn Dean wrote Discover Texas Online because she hated history! She remembers only how bored she was and nothing else! Her husband loved History and felt terrible that she hated it so much and one day asked her a question that would change her perspective forever! Was there nothing that you liked about History? Then she remembered one teacher bringing in a coffee washed stained sheet and the hand painting she did in 3rd grade! That's when she realized learning history can be fun if you could experience it; and so Discovertexasonline.com is born! 
Top three takeaways 
Learning should be specific and personal.  
When learning history or any subject you can make it multicurricular by finding the different subject tucked in History.  
That during the Spanish Inquisition there was a surname that came into existence in the US and only exists in the US and it is the surname Hidalgo; which is a mash up of three words Hijo de algo; and this came to be because during the inquisition Spain was stripping people of everything they had and those who wanted to leave a legacy came over the US so they could have land etc. Since last names usually came from where you lived or some type of inheritance when they came to the US Hijo de algo means son of something thus we got Hidalgo!

Learning Can Be Done From Anywhere In The World With Willow Chenoah Founder Of Fields Of Daisies

Intro 
Willow Chenoah Founder of Fields of Daisies, after "finishing" homeschooling her 3 children, she found myself still constantly thinking of fun ideas and topics that she wanted to teach. Our family had homeschooled in many circumstances and different parts of the world, so she also wanted to share the things she'd learned along the way. She wanted to encourage families who might be facing a financial crisis, or living overseas with limited resources, or families with multiple aged kids struggling to teach them all at once, that they could succeed and even ENJOY homeschooling in those seasons. So she created a free online based History curriculum, as well as free complete History/Literature based Unit Studies, that can be done from anywhere in the world that has an internet connection. 
 
She have three amazing children that have taught me more about living, loving, learning, and knowing God than anything else she can think of. They have homeschooled in small towns and big cities, in foreign countries and in our rural home town, inside and outside, on buses, in cars, and on planes, in times of plenty and in lean times too. They have been homeschooling for more than 20 years. it’s been the best of times and the worst of times and she wouldn’t trade one minute of it for anything! 
Top three takeaways 
She believes that if the parents can find passion within themselves, it will spill over to their children and create that in them as well.  
She loves to learn something new and share it with everyone.  
She created a free online based History Curriculum and History/ Literature based Unit Studies that can be done from anywhere in the world.

Andrew Pudewa Director and Speaker of IEW, Institute of Excellence in Writing.

Intro 
Andrew Pudewa director and speaker of IEW Institute of Excellence in Writing is passionate about teaching and equipping parents to instruct their children's education. What makes IEW stand out from other language arts programs is the focus on teaching the parent or homeschool teacher to know the material. This not only brings confidence to the parents but the child by fostering strong writing and communication skills. IEW has a long legacy from 1930's to current day that maintains a gold standard of excellence for all learning styles, challenges and differences! 
Top three takeaways 
Teaching creative writing without basics and fundamentals is like giving a child a musical instrument and telling them these are the different notes on this instrument keep playing for the next 10 years and let's see what comes of it, which is our current system of literary writing. 
Homeschooling is so much more accessible than in the past, because of the onset of co-ops, micro-schools, Facebook groups and the variety of educational material that offer new families joining the homeschool community an solid association; of similar beliefs and values.   
Academia is the least important thing in our growth and development as children it is at best 2nd. We need to do a lot of things together with our family and friends and build those relationships. At the end of our life we will not be taking with us all of the accolades and knowledge we have obtained in academia but the connections, relationships and memories we built within the years of our life.
