Big Things in Small PackageDec 24, 2007
By Avid Reader
This is a Christian based small book of 109 pages with nine chapters. The first two chapters are all about your child and choosing curriculum. She then jumps right into Reading Methods and Writing Strategies followed by Social Studies and Science. Chapters 7 and 8 are about support and encouragement as you homeschool after which she deals with the extras such as music, foreign language, art, etc. in short snippets. Finally, the appendix is filled with a list of Newberry and Caldecott medal winning literature. I found the book quite informative and chock full of resources, ideas, strategies and methods for homeschooling. It is well written, easy to read and the cartoons throughout are good for a chuckle. I'm glad I bought it.

My Favorite Homeschooling Book!!!Oct 24, 2007
By Homeschool Mom in FL
I literally read and studied every book on homeschooling at my local library! Homeschooling with TLC is my absolute favorite! It is a one-of-a-kind treasure trove of how-to in a to-the-point format by a real professional teacher and homeschool mother. This un-intimidating read is moving, truthful, inspiring, motivational, and simply a must-read and must-own. Homeschooling with TLC is the ONLY how-to-teach namely how-to-homeschool book written for average people seeking to make lesson time inspired, effective and FUN for their children.
The seasoned and long sought-after author, Tamara L. Chilver taught in the public school system for years and has homeschooled her own three children even longer! Finally published, Mrs. T.L.Chilver Gifts us all with her ability to teach us how-to-teach our children and make it a Blast! This handy, well organized gem compiles tons of tips, games and ideas. It is a succinct listing of what works and how to make it happen in your own home! Check out her website and sign up for her weekly blogs teachingwithtlc. com She's my homeschool hero and mentor and more importantly my children's ...they can't get enough of her ideas! She will be yours too...Read it to believe it!
Finding the path to homeschooling with a bonafide expert holding your hand takes all of the trepidation and fears away. While staying on course to a stimulating and thrilling homeschool experience for the whole family is made easy in these few pages! No longer must homeschool teachers prepare boring tedious lessons and children be plagued by chapters of activity books. No longer must we read thick, heavy, wordy texts by inept authors on the subject nearest and dearest to our hearts and calling. It's simply Awesome to have the benefit of a "real" teacher giving encouragement and practical tips on the matter of superiorly educating our children at home.
You'll want to share Homeschooling with TLC with everyone. My copy has had to be replaced tens of times so I advise you to buy several copies now to share with all of your homeschooling friends, relatives, homeschooling groups and to anyone you know who is considering homeschooling. Share the Good news for the Children's sake!!!!
