For a long time, I was not a fan of online homeschooling. I wanted to be more hands-on with my students, believing that was how they learned best.

But I was wrong.

When one of my sons moved to Peru for a year, he needed a way to study on his own. So I turned to online schooling. And you know what? He thrived. The compact lessons, the video lessons, and the online assessments met his learning style better than I had. He learned a lot.

Lee Giles is the creator of Easy Peasy All-in-One Homeschool, a free homeschool curriculum for preschool through twelfth grade. She is the mother of six children ages 8 - 21. Her family served as missionaries for 14 years in Macedonia and Turkey.

Lee and I talk about the misconceptions about online homeschooling, how and why of to use it, and the ways it benefits you and your students.

Some of the things we talk about:

• how I changed my mind about online homeschooling
• how online homeschooling has evolved
• how the free homeschool program started
• the difference between public school distance learning and online homeschooling
• the difference between making homeschool decisions out of fear or out of love
• how to stay involved in your child's education while online homeschooling
• how to teach a child who seems not to be academically talented
• and more!
