Homeschool Huddle - An Inclusive Social Space for Homeschooled Tweens

Homeschoolers are an eclectic group of students that have a range of backgrounds and learning styles. There are so many homeschooling styles, that no two homeschool experiences are alike. 

Homeschool hangout is an inclusive social space to share experiences, life events, and generally have fun hanging out with friends. 

This is not meant to be an academic group, but a weekly experience rich with social skill practice, fun, and laughter. Small groups allow for increased interaction. We will talk about what interests the learners have and the discussion will be guided and supported from there. If the group is a little hesitant, then we may use ice breaker activities to spark some inspiration. These are fantastic ways for older kids to practice and increase their confidence in conversation and public speaking. 

Since this is a social-based class, the specific content of the class each week will be determined by the students who are in attendance. 

I feel that children should be encouraged to follow their passions. Children need to know that they can have what they want for their lives if they have the correct tools and motivation to get there. I hope to help build confidence in my students and to give them some of those tools. I also believe that not every child learns the same way. Education is not a one-size-fits-all experience. I look forward to helping your child learn how they learn.

While I offer an extensive collection of class content choices, my specialty is meeting students where they’re at and making the course material accessible to all students, regardless of the topic. I love to be silly with my students and encourage interaction in all of my classes. I want learners to feel at ease and safe to be themselves in my classroom. My small class sizes and relaxed, encouraging teaching style allow me to tailor my classes to each student’s needs and learning style, resulting in learners walking away from class confident and smiling.
