Lee

My name is Lee Binz. I independently homeschooled my two boys for eight years, from third grade through high school graduation. Now both boys are off to college, having both earned four year, full-tuition scholarships, and I have started my new career as a “veteran” homeschool consultant!

Upon my “graduation” I made two changes. First, I volunteered to be Secretary of the Washington Homeschool Organization (WHO) and I started my homeschool consulting business, The HomeScholar. My mission is to help parents homeschool through high school.

I have a three core beliefs about homeschooling that drive my business:

  1. I believe that homeschooling provides the best possible learning environment.
  2. I believe that every child deserves a college-prep education, whether or not they choose to go to college.
  3. I believe that parents are capable of providing a superior education to their children.

Sometimes parents quit homeschooling because of fear about teaching the upper grades. I am here to help you overcome your fear. How can I help you? Let me give you just a few examples.

  • Cindy called me in a complete panic. She needed a transcript “NOW!” Right then and there, we did a two hour consultation and the next day it was done!
  • Kim had an unmotivated art student and couldn’t afford college. We did a one hour consultation and scholarship search. As a result, her daughter became excited about the college process and was subsequently admitted to her first choice university, with scholarship money.
  • Alyson was afraid of starting the upper grades. I scheduled her lesson plans to provide her structure.

I am not a certified teacher. I do not judge your homeschool or evaluate your children. I am just an experienced homeschool mom who has been where you are and lived to tell about it! I have the knowledge you need to succeed in homeschooling high school and beyond!
