Kolbecast

AMDG. What questions should homeschool parents be asking halfway through the academic year? Homeschooling moms and Kolbe employees Vanessa Delgado and Elyse Williams join the Kolbecast to talk about what to do— and not do!— if you’ve fallen behind; how to deal with burnout and unmotivated kids; when you should change courses and how to do it; when to start planning next year’s courses; the role of ability tests; and so much more. 

Vanessa and Elyse will leave you feeling understood and encouraged, ready to take on second semester.
