Do you know how your child learns best? If you're not sure, this guide can help you figure it out. Because people learn in different ways, with diverse ways of capturing information and processing knowledge, you'll be more successful in your homeschooling if you can understand these particular learning styles for your children. Responding to your children's learning styles will help both them and you become more effective and enthusiastic about learning in your home. This guide helps you understand visual learning styles, auditory learning styles, reading/writing learning styles, kinesthetic learning styles, and offers information and tips to get the most out of your understanding of your own child. 

This practical guidebook seeks to bridge the gap between librarians and homeschoolers in these two ways: who are homeschoolers and how can I help them practically? Part 1 addresses the history and background of homeschooling as well as the needs and viewpoints of various homeschooling groups. Part 2 deals specifically with building programs and services for the homeschooling population. By moving past stereotypes and understanding what resources are available, librarians can be important allies to this diverse group of patrons. Children's and YA librarians, library directors, support staff working with youth in public libraries and educators will find the information and tools they need to develop policies, programs, and services to support homeschoolers in their communities.
