Do you have to be a homeschooled student to take Homeschool Spark courses?
No. But I was a homeschool mom for seventeen years. Once a homeschooler, always a homeschooler, I guess.
Even more, you don't have to be a student at all. Adults are welcome to take the video courses as well. The courses aren't childish in their approach.
I love the concept of self-directed learning. I created these courses to provide quality video courses on software, programming, computer graphics, writing, and more. The courses are clean and wholesome, with no objectionable content. That's getting harder to come by in today's world.
Sign up to the Homeschool Spark email list to be notified by email when new courses become available. If you have a particular course you'd like to see, go to the Contact page and let me know about it.
Note that the listed prices are for use within a single family. If you'd like to use a course for multiple students in a homeschool group or co-op, please contact me with the number of students, and I'll provide a discount code for each member of the class.
