Just wanted to say that I think you would do fine as a teacher too. I think the best teacher for any child is his/her parents (I mean your mom would be great too, but I just mean don’t underestimate your own skills to be a good teacher). Whether or not you’re a “teacher,” I think any parent knows their child best. I say this as a formally educated teacher, and whose mom homeschooled me despite the fact she was not formally educated as a teacher. A lot of it is self-guided learning, you’re just more like a mentor. You don’t have to know all the answers, you just have to know where to look to find the answers when you or your child get stuck. I believe education should be more about learning how to learn, than just memorizing certain facts. There’s a reason homeschooled students tend to do well in post-secondary. We learned how to learn and how to think independently. :) Just wanted to offer some encouragement. You could definitely teach and then you would have your mom to ask questions when needed. (Also, just as a side note, I feel like it’s not a coincidence that I, the homeschooled one, am here on GA and my husband, who went through the school system, is not and refuses to accept anything not from the MSM.)

Yes!! Lucky you! We definitely need some teachers in our family!
