Author and former teacher David Farmer has written an innovative guidebook aimed specifically at homeschooling. The Learning Book: The Best Homeschool Study Tips, Tricks and Skills gives students and their parents a step-by-step, user-friendly guide for applying principles and techniques that incorporate dominant learning styles. Using 30-plus years of experience as a high school teacher and college teacher coupled with intensive research on various learning theories, Farmer’s book includes 158 specific study tips that have visual, auditory, and tactile techniques to encourage students to learn more and retain what they learn longer. Farmer’s original approach cites examples of working with students that reinforce the idea that not all learning has to be academically specific. Farmer’s expertise in academia will have your children on the way to inventive thinking and learning geared toward their own specific talents. The Learning Book: The Best Homeschool Study Tips, Tricks and Skills is a must-have for any parents choosing homeschooling over traditional academic environments. David Farmer was educated at Elizabethtown College and Penn State University. A former high school teacher and entrepreneur, Mr. Farmer has also worked as a motivational speaker and business consultant, and currently teaches online college-level courses. He and his wife, Carol, live on their horse farm in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania. Mr. Farmer is currently working on a nonfiction book. The Learning Book: The Best Homeschool Study Tips, Tricks and Skills is his first book.
