Working homeschool mom, I know how overwhelming it can be to choose a math curriculum for your homeschool. That's why I'd like to tell you about the online math curriculum we've been using for years – CTCMath.com.

As far as math curriculums go, it has loads of great features that solve lots of the math issues we've had and I know a lot of homeschooling families have. Here are a few of the features (from the many) that we really like:

• Questions are adaptive which means the interactive questions change in difficulty depending on the student's ability. They use a smart algorithm that tracks the student's progress and delivers questions based on their unique needs. The student doesn’t even know this is happening, helping them to build confidence and master concepts!
• Concepts are delivered through video tutorials and summaries which are clear, complete, and easy to follow [like having your very own teacher]. This ensures your children understand something before they're asked to practise it.

And then for us parents, CTCMath has:

• Extensive reports which are valuable in monitoring your child's progress and spotting any gaps.
• And they offer a 12-month money-back guarantee if this curriculum is not for you and your family. CTCMath will provide a full refund, no questions asked.

But I think the most important things is a whole lot LESS stress when it's math time for both parents AND kids. You get to outsource math with confidence and your kids get a fantastic tailor-made programme that makes learning and mastering math enjoyable and positive.

About the Episode

As a working mom newly starting with homeschooling back in 2017, I desperately wanted guidance, step-by-step instructions and an operating manual. I didn’t trust myself to make this work. And I definitely wanted to know what was considered the right amount of homeschool time by age.

How much homeschooling would my kids need so that they succeeded? How many hours would they be expected to sit and quietly do work? And going on their time in public school, how was I ever going to fit all those hours into my already hectically busy day?!

It took some time, but eventually I figured everything out. So in the episode today, I’m going to tell you what I found out and what works for us. And I bet you’re going to be pretty surprised by what I have to share!

I'll give you exactly the recommended hours per day to homeschool. But I'm also going to share some tips and strategies for making the most of the time you have and for also saving time with homeschooling!

About the Episode

On the Strike a Balance Podcast for Working Homeschool Moms this week, I chat to veteran working homeschooler, Luba Vangelova.

Luba is the founder of The Hub, a unique online learning community that makes it practical for tweens and teens to have the best of both worlds—a customized education and consistent community.

She’s also written many popular articles about the future of learning, and co-founded and managed several pioneering in-person learning communities.

In addition to her work in education, she runs a communications consultancy. She holds degrees in systems engineering and journalism, and resides in Virginia, USA.

Luba and I discuss homeschooling teens and tweens and how it can fill working moms with a lot of anxiety and doubt. Luba shares some ways to make this time effective and engaging for kids.
