GoodLife Homeschool Services

I have volunteered and worked with families and children since 1990. I homeschooled (provided home-based instruction to) my children from 1998-2010, which gave me experience in evaluating learning styles, developing curriculum, and procuring educational materials. I worked concurrently with multi-age children, researched community resources for field trips and learning opportunities, networked with homeschool families, and fulfilled duties as required by state law.

In 1998 I helped create a cooperative and supportive community of homeschool families without regard to educational, political, or religious philosophy. I edited and published the group’s print newsletter and created and maintain their Internet forum. This group remains active with more than 300 members.

As a volunteer, I have worked with La Leche League, Girl Scouts, Academy of Children’s Theatre, and 4-H – all involving interaction with children and families. Currently, I work part time as an Emergency Substitute Teacher for local school districts. In addition, I work as a Technical Editor for a utility company. And, my girls still live at home! I'm busy, but I do my best to respond within three days to requests for information about GoodLife Homeschool Assessments.

Homeschool parents are the best judges of their child's progress. My goal is to work with parents to provide annual non-test assessments that meet Washington State requirements, provide information that is useful to parents, and provoke fond memories.
