 How it works: You bring your portfolio over to my home and I go over it right there with you. Depending on how organized you are, I might have questions--not really a formal interview, but lots of times families do more than they quantify in a portfolio, or things are poorly labeled, and I'd hate to short-shrift you. If your student is present, I try to ask them questions or involve them in some way, lest they be stuck sitting there for a half-hour or more doing nothing. Starting this year, clients will be able to choose between two evaluation options, both of which comply with New Hampshire's homeschool law. I schedule evaluations an hour to an hour-and-a-half apart. A confident mom with one student and a neatly organized portfolio will be out of here in a half hour. A mom with a thousand questions, four kids, and a box of books and papers takes a lot longer. All new clients leave with a copy of my current teaching certificate. Please contact me or download my brochure if you have any questions or would like to set up a meeting. While portfolios are typically evaluated sometime in May or June, it's best to call for an appointment in the early Spring -- it can be very encouraging to have a "last day of school" to aim for when the Spring Fever sets in! If you are using portfolio evaluation to comply with New Hampshire homeschool law, remember that you must submit a signed copy of the evaluation to your participating agency “on or before July 1 for the current school year.” If you're looking for other options, here are some other New Hampshire evaluators to check out. |
