FASD Hope is a podcast series about Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder (FASD), through the lens of parent advocates with over eighteen years of lived experience.
On the tenth episode of FASD Hope, Natalie Vecchione (Podcast Host) talks to Kathy Kuhl - Author, Speaker and Coach for parents who homeschool students with learning challenges. In addition to coaching parents who are teaching children / teens with learning challenges, Kathy also provides resources, support and guidance in the homeschool & special needs homeschool community. After homeschooling her creative, distractible son (with dyslexia), Kathy interviewed sixty-four parents who were homeschooling students with learning disabilities. Then, she wrote "Homeschooling Your Struggling Learner", a handbook equipping parents to teach children with many learning challenges. Kathy also wrote "Staying Sane As You Homeschool" and "Encouraging Your Child". Kathy gives workshops and private consultations.
Six and a half years ago, Natalie read Kathy's book, "Homeschooling Your Struggling Learner", when she began homeschooling her son. Natalie considered it to be a highly valuable resource throughout her son's homeschooling journey and she considers Kathy to be one of her "homeschool heroes". During their conversation, Natalie and Kathy discuss the following topics: Kathy's lived experience as a homeschool mom (and how that led to her career as an author / homeschool consultant), how she became an advocate for those homeschool students who learn differently, tips and resources for homeschool parents and caregivers of children / teens with learning disabilities and reasons why homeschooling is such a great fit for families of children and teens with learning disabilities and brain based diagnoses.
"See how the farmer waits for the precious fruits of the earth, being patient about it, until it receives the early and late rains. You also be patient. Establish your hearts, for the coming of the Lord is at hand..." - James 5: 7-8
