Publisher's summary

In the mad dash to move from mass-schooling to homeschooling, moms and dads often try to copy schools to guarantee success. There’s a better way to educate your students at home without mimicking the failing strategies often used outside of the home.

Dr. Lybrand offers a radically different way to think about education and how to grow ‘happy adults’. The move to a successful homeschool comes from growing Independent Learners, kids who focus on the skills needed to learn how to learn. With five homeschoolers of their own, Dr. Fred & Jody (wife) set up an effective process to prepare kids for college and life. In fact, in the later years of homeschooling, mom and dad only invested about 30 minutes a day with homeschool; the kids became their own teachers!

All the Lybrand kids are college graduates, married, employed, and actively impacting their worlds toward something better. If you want a successful homeschool, without the headaches of confusion, worry, and chaos, then get The Independent Homeschool and devour it. As Dr. Fred says, “It’s hard to think crooked and walk straight.” This book is your guided tour to a better way to think about (and do) homeschool.
