Book Description
Chandra Byers is a homeschooling mother of six, and David Byers has a Ph.D. in education and teaches education at the college level. Their oldest is now attending college on a scholarship, after having been homeschooled all her life. With their combination of experience and expertise, they show us how parents can continue to homeschool their children through high school in subjects for which they are not experts. Not only that, but they demonstrate how these home-taught children are fully prepared for college and are often superior performers. Not only has Dr. Byers helped prepare his own homeschooled children for college, but he has seen first-hand how many homeschooled students have done in college. They are both from Nebraska.

College Prep Homeschooling Is Wonderful May 13, 2008
This book is a wonderful resource for people who are thinking about or definitely know they want to teach their children at home through the high school years. Not only does this book provide specific and clear explanations about the high school years from the experienced perspective of a homeschooling couple who taught their first two children at home all the way through high school, but it also provides a college professor's (David's) expert insights about what skills and knowledge students need to have in order to be successful in higher education.
There aren't many books out there written about the high school years of homeschooling. Those that are available often offer only the homeschooling family's personal and non-authoritative experiences, but not enough information from the perspectives of colleges and universities. Those that offer such perspectives offer them second-hand through interviews or information obtained from college officials. College-Prep Homeschooling offers information about why students succeed or fail in college from Dr. Byers' extensive experience and knowledge as a college professor. Dr. Byers holds an earned doctorate in Education with a specialization in Teaching and Learning.
From lesson plans to transcripts, this book has it all. It is soon to be a best seller among homeschooling families.
