Home Schooling
 
Parents choose to home school their children for various reasons.  Most parents report to us that they choose to home school because their children progress better in the home environment, and as parents, they have control of the educational experience.  Others are frustrated that their children’s needs are not being met by the traditional school system.

Teaching at home can be a rewarding experience, but it has it’s own set of unique challenges. The dual role of parent and teacher along with learning challenges can create stresses that don’t exist in non-home schooling households.

The Kurtz Center has a wide variety of workshops that can help with the educational goals for your family.  These workshops are designed to provide practical working applications for use in your daily teaching activities.

Below are titles of workshops we have and may in future offer here at the Center or at your location if you wish.
