It will also help experienced homeschoolers find new and more effective ways to teach. I get the impression that Kerry has really studied and tried out most of these options, and she explains the strengths and drawbacks of each option clearly and concisely. It was nice to get a better understanding of methods like Charlotte Mason and Unschooling without having to read a whole book on each subject. It also covers Classical education, unit studies, the traditional textbook approach, and more. The stories Kerry shares from her own homeschooling experience will put you at ease and give you an idea what to expect as a homeschool parent. It's definitely a book I will keep referring to as we go along. --Daniel Forster, Doorposts Publishing I have homeschooled for 15 years now and I still continue to learn so much from Kerry Beck! This book is for not only the brand new homeschooler but the 'seasoned' educators like me. Approaches to Christian Homeschooling solidified my method of homeschooling and spurred me on in my homeschool journey. I love the very practical helps and the Biblical worldview Kerry shares. She presents everything from how to implement a textbook approach to using the Charlotte Mason habit of dictation. This book offers a comprehensive guide to all the homeschooling approaches. And it is wrapped up beautifully with the encouraging three Rs for homeschool moms. --Tricia Hodges, Southern HodgePodge Whether you are considering homeschooling, already homeschooling or just want to know more about a family you know who homeschools, this book will help you. Kerry has done a GREAT job in writing a book about the various 'methods' of educating children without giving more credence over another. As a homeschooling Mom, I have searched and read many books about how to homeschool, why to homeschool, etc and this one is the least biased - while equipping a parent with a good understanding about the different styles and how to make them work independently or combined in your home. Kerry's humble heart and style of writing (like she is talking with you over a cup of tea or coffee) make this book one that will inspire you, help you and not overwhelm you. It is concise, easy to read and gives you multiple ways of applying the knowledge you learn the very day you read it. --Rebecca Brandt, Mom's Mustard SeedsAbout the AuthorAfter 10 years of homeschooling (her kids have graduated), Kerry enjoys meeting with moms to encourage them in raising, educating and encouraging their own kids. She also has a strong desire to show families how to give their children a love of learning. Kerry travels to El Salvador 5-7 times a year to help with an orphanage and nearby community. In her spare time, she enjoys cooking, scrapbooking, quilting, traveling with her husband and visiting with friends.
