“I’ve read a lot of books about how to help my children and this book really resonated with me.
I don’t homeschool officially but I do work to provide extra help to my kids and this book helped in a few different ways.
First, it helped empower me to help my child— I don’t have to be an official teacher to make a difference and this is written without a lot of jargon.
Second, it gave me some real advice on what to look for in professionals who work with my children.
Finally, I especially liked the tips on math problems and I’ve used some of Kuhl's strategies to help make math more engaging (for both me and my child!).
I appreciate the practical, mom-to-mom advice presented throughout the book.
Thanks for a great resource!”
