Teach Your Children How to Think with Mentoring

Can your kids think for themselves?
How well can they discuss what they are learning?
How well can your kids make wise, Biblical decisions?
How well can your kids solve problems
... not just Math problems but real life problems?
Are your kids inspired to learn more?

If I'm honest, my kids struggled with some of the areas listed above (decision making, critical thinking, Biblical thinking, wanting to learn more). So, I started doing some research in the middle of our homeschool years. I discovered mentoring as an option to help my kids think for themselves and make wise decisions.

What I discovered was an education strategy that is very easy for homeschoolers (and Christian educators) to use.

It's part of our Christian Leadership Series and called "Mentoring" with classic books. In Teach Your Children "How to Think" with Mentoring, I outline how you as a homeschool mom (or educator) can use classics to teach critical thinking skills, Biblical thinking skills, wise decision making and raise Godly leaders.

The Mentoring strategy is one I used with my own kids. It's said, "the proof is in the pudding." My kids used the Mentoring strategy of Leadership Education. All 3 of them are walking with God, making wise decisions and leading others in their comunities.

In Teach Your Child "How to Think" with Mentoring, you discover practical ways to implement Leadership Education with older students. You will receive encouragement and hands-on methods to mentor your children using classics. Read - Write - Discuss! That is the general method for training your children to think on their own in any area of study. Also included are practical suggestions for parents to begin their own education as they prepare to raise their children with real thinking skills for the future. See the other secrets in the book.
