Home Education for Real Life – Series

How to Teach Your Children to Thrive in the 21st Century

If you’ve ever wondered how in the world you are going to teach your children everything they need to know for life and leadership in the real world, this 7-part series from the Botkin family might be the dose of hope, relief, and encouragement you need.

Featuring veteran homeschoolers Geoffrey and Victoria and all seven of their grown children, “Home Education for Real Life” tackles the tough issues: higher education, different learning styles, giftings, homeschooling on a budget, vocational training, teaching social skills and confidence, helping children who don’t like to read or write, teaching children to navigate the world without becoming conformed to the world, creating an educational home environment, and more. Hear from each member of the Botkin family, as they talk about lessons they’ve learned along the way, books and resources they recommend, things that worked for them, and things they’ll never do again. A great source of motivation and encouragement for the whole family!
