KEYNOTE: Creating a Life-Giving Education for Your Children

Today, we live in a world where “education” has come to mean something dull, standardized, and lifeless. But as a homeschooling parent, you are uniquely positioned to provide your children a life-giving learning experience that fosters their creativity, cultivates a sense of purpose, and is tailored to each child’s individual gifts, strengths, and passions. If this feels daunting, fear not. Zan Tyler is here like a breath of fresh air to bring you a new outlook on what is possible—and realistically doable—as a homeschooler. Let Zan show you practical ways to create a rewarding, customized education centered on God and His vision for your children’s lives.

Help! I’m Homeschooling an Unmotivated Child

Infusing our children’s lives with motivation instead of having to drag them from one lesson to the next—is that even possible? Most of us are just trying to keep them on task in the midst of math anxiety, sibling rivalry, mounds of laundry, and the daily demands of life. Now imagine this: As you lead your children intentionally through their day, they learn and grow exponentially as you work to cultivate their strengths and encourage their faith. This isn’t a dream—it IS possible! Zan Tyler shares four power-packed principles you can use right away to motivate your children and raise a family of mountain movers.
