To contact me
Need more info or have questions? Just drop me an email and I'll get back to you, usually within 24 hours. If I can't answer your question, I will try to refer you to a person or website that can. If you don't have a reply from me within 24 hours, check your spam folder. Some email servers filter more aggressively than others.
I currently have limited openings in 2026, so let me know if you'd like to test. I also have a waiting list if you'd like to be added to that for testing later in the year. Let me know how many children you need tested and I'll contact you about scheduling when we get further into the year.
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.
