How to Start Homeschool {when you don't know what to do!} // You can start TODAY!

We are deciding on homeschooling because we are concerned about the safety of our child, and we are concerned about the overall quality of education our child will get. Homeschooling seems to answer those questions.

I just want to say thank you. Jumping into homeschooling is making me feel like I'm bailing a sinking ship.

In case anyone is worried about being weird...it's not the school...it's an individual person kind of thing. I went to public school and my husband went to private school and guess what? We are both big weirdos.

One thing I didn't realize until my 6th year of homeschooling is that THE LIBRARY HAS CURRICULUM BOOKS. Our local library has the whole Life of Fred series and The Story of Us series (both print and audiobooks)

Perfectly timed! My wife & I know that I will be homeschooling our daughter. I’m not rushing her into a curriculum… she’s only 19 months old. I’m in the researching phase. Checking out curriculums, building recourses, learning about how to teach in a way that our kids will learn, etc.. I don’t believe in rushing children to learn for a check in the box. However, our daughter is already very interested in Letters & learning the names of everything already. She asks to do her alphabet book multiple times a day & randomly practices her letters. There are just some things that she picks up on, that we have No idea how she already understands. I think she may be an early learner. Example: She was going through her alphabet book with her mom yesterday. They got to “K is for Kite”. She said “No! K Kitty” 😮 She says K Kitty every time now.

We just decided to homeschool of 1st grader. Thank you for being a guiding light ❤

I watched this just for fun, even though I'm entering my 4th year of homeschooling! I still often feel overwhelmed and like I have no idea what to do. These tips are GREAT.

Glad to see some homeschool content, even if it's super basic. I've been doing it for awhile now. I'd like to see more relatable homeschool content from you!

THANK YOU FOR THIS. I am the first in my group of friends to have kids. I've been homeschooling only for a year and a half with my 6 yr old. All of my friend's kids are around 2 - 4 yrs old and they are getting curious about homeschooling. Asking me questions and what not.. I always recommend your videos to them but this is the perfect video to send them to! :)

Great video! True, there are so many homeschooling resources! We now have our first year of homeschooling completed (although we will be doing school year-round/light school in the summer). Our biggest hurdle that surprised me a bit was how my child and I needed to unschool. She was in public education up to 3rd grade (in a great school) and I was a 16-year public school teacher. Once we settled into our new free lifestyle, it has been amazing, to say the least! If anyone is thinking they CAN'T teach their kids, it's okay...I went through many days/nights wondering if I was doing a "good enough" job. My child is happy, is an active member of her community, and loves learning.

I love being a member of hslda! They are so helpful. Absolutely worth the membership fee. I've personally spoken to lawyers there and it was essential. Wonderful!

I LOVE HSLDA! It is a GAME CHANGER! I live in a high regulation state (PA) and knowing that really bothered me and made me so anxious for homeschooling. HSLDA's membership provided me with everything I needed legally to send to our school district and it made it so much easier to homeschool in a high regulation state. One of the best things about their membership is knowing we have a legal team on our side if (God forbid) ever needed. The money we pay them each month not only helps ourselves but other families if they ever need the back up towards a group of people who want to hurt their homeschool.

I bought Angie’s homeschooling course last night! Spending the next 6 months researching and learning about it. Hoping to then feel confident enough to switch my kiddos (4 yo boy, 2yo girl) to HS. Thanks to Angie and her community!

Thank you so much for sharing and all the encouragement. I’m 3 years into our homeschooling and I’m still learning and getting the hang of things. Especially when preparing curriculum I don’t know if I’ll ever get it “right” but my kids are happy and learning.

You're such an uplifting person! Thank u so much for the encouragement. My time as a hhomeschooler is just starting and I try to look at this as a learning and experiencing journey for my children and ,if not more than equally, for me.

I love this so much. Thank you for sharing your passion amd heart with us mommas!!

You helped me make the jump into homeschool thos last year and im seeing the benefits of unschooling and may be headed in that direction in the upcoming year!

Hiii! I haven’t watched in a good while, I missed you! You are truly a breathe of fresh air, never stop being you💛💛

I just clicked and in the middle of a Pampers ad. Super excited for your video. Im intimidated by homeschooling.

Yes !!! Mothers know their children best!!! We should be the ones to nurture, raise and teach our kids 🎉
