The results?

Our eldest daughter is on the president’s list at one of the most competitive colleges on the West Coast; our 16-year-old is in an accelerated college program at our local university; and our 13-year-old attends a hybrid school with an emphasis on math, science and engineering.

I had no special advantage, nor are we wealthy.  The girls are bright, but not phenoms who played chess at 2 or aced algebra at 6. In my quest for helping my children attain success, I co-founded the largest alternative education site on the Internet, co-authored a definitive guide, Homeschooling for Success, and became school board president of a public virtual school.

What Every Parent Needs to Know

I guided our daughters through various virtual schooling opportunities. We went through exhaustive research, learning, and trial and error. Through my own experiences, I have uncovered methods that will dramatically improve your child’s performance in school, that will place students on a fast-track approach to college, and will give them the tools to succeed in tomorrow’s new workplace.

I co-authored the first book ever written on virtual schooling with Lisa Gillis and Christina Culver.
