As an electrical engineer I am trained to solve problems, so I treated the education system’s limitations as a problem I needed to solve for my kids’ sake. Then I wrote a book about it to help other parents. From Homeschool to Harvard Without Paying a Cent reveals proven strategies I used over a 10-year period, starting when I supplemented my sons’ education at a public elementary school and then transitioned to homeschooling. My strategies address top concerns faced by homeschoolers and traditional school students. The book also benefits parents who were forced to homeschool their children due to the pandemic. More importantly, it fills the gap in the “How to Homeschool” book market. Every parent should supplement their children’s education. If full-time homeschooling is not an option, part-time homeschooling could be the solution to help your children thrive.
This book guides new homeschool parents to information on how to: start transition from a brick-and-mortar school, supplement students from traditional schools, make curriculum choices, use outside resources, learn teaching techniques, encourage learning on the road, and choose extracurricular activities that can help build student’s credentials to improve their chances of getting accepted into Ivy League schools.
It gives detailed information about my sons’ academic years during elementary, middle, high school, and transitioning into college, where my elder son graduated with a neuroscience degree at age 19 and my younger son with an engineering degree at age 18 (both summa cum laude).
