I currently have openings for the Fall 2026/2027 school year. Let me know how many children you need tested and I'll get back to you with the months I have available to add new families to my calendar.
New this year: I’m on YouTube- I put together a Youtube channel with fun Virtual Field trip links. It’s called HomeSchool Bus. I figured that was easier than if you had to work from a document with a list of links. I’ll be adding to it over the coming weeks, but I have the first batch all loaded and ready to go. So, all aboard the HomeSchool Bus! Just choose your destination for learning fun. www.youtube.com/@HSBus-KJ
Who am I?
Firstly, I'm a homeschooling mom of 2 now grown sons. We decided on homeschooling when my oldest was just 3 yrs old and thought we'd see how it went. Quite honestly, we never looked back. It wasn't always a walk in the park. We had friends and relatives who didn't understand our choice. We struggled with the financial ups and downs that come with making this a lifestyle choice. But my degree in Psychology and a fascination with watching them grasp concepts and follow their passions just melded into a completely satisfying way to raise and educate children. And I became convinced that textbooks were about the worst way to learn anything -- but especially if your child is a non-traditional learner (by personality or learning style).
Secondly, I've been a Peabody tester and Homeschool Coach since Jan 2001. I test for homeschoolers in 18 states and even a few other countries and have presented workshops to homeschool parent groups and at statewide conferences encouraging parents to choose their own path. My testing service is part testing, part mentorship/coaching time. This website is meant to offer options for families in a browse-friendly format, available when you need ideas because the current path has hit a roadblock.
