 My son Kevin is a chess genius. When he was in high school, he was ranked second in state even though he never had a chess coach like the other kids. Instead of a coach, my husband purchased a high-powered chess program for his Palm Pilot, and he would play Kevin while using the chess program. We used to tease my husband that he was "strapping on his auxiliary brain" when he played with the chess computer in his hand. Sometimes moms will feel sick with worry about creating transcripts or course descriptions. If you want to do it yourself, but you are feeling a bit overwhelmed, you can use The HomeScholar as your "auxiliary brain!" We can talk over the phone, and discuss class titles, credit value, course descriptions, grading criteria, and anything else that is wearing you down. I'll give you the brain-power boost, and you can make your own transcript with the information you glean from our discussion. Remember that I don't judge your homeschool, or evaluate your children, I'm just here to help if you need me! How it works: I only schedule one consulting session per day, so when you make an appointment, I will reserve the whole day just for you. Most appointments range from one to three hours; but rest assured, you can have my help for as long as you need in order to feel comfortable and confident in your homeschooling plans. A down-payment for one hour is all you need to reserve your appointment. Then you can e-mail me all of the questions that have been bothering you. Think about how great it will feel to get all of your homeschooling high school questions answered in one sitting! If you are looking for more intensive consulting around two very focused areas, check out my Crash Courses on "Preparing to Homeschool High School" and "Preparing for College." Price: $125 per hour Email the The HomeScholar to set up an appointment. Lower cost options:
If you aren't sure about purchasing a private consultation, I recommend starting with some of the general information I can provide on DVD and in print. For beginners, I usually recommend the video Preparing to Homeschool High School.
Sometimes beginners have questions that are mostly about making a transcript, credits, grades, etc. If that is the case, then I recommend they start with The Total Transcript Solution.
Those two things do not overlap, so if you can't decide you can purchase both and they will both be worthwhile to you.
If you feel like you don't need an intensive amount of help, but you still are interested in talking with me, please consider joining the Gold Care Club. The Gold Care Club provides 20 minutes of personal consulting every week. You can choose to consult by email, or you can call me once a week to talk for 20 minutes. The Gold Care Club has much more than consulting! It includes online parent training courses, webinars, links and articles. It's a TREMENDOUS value and I guarantee you will get a LOT out of it! Let me know what you have decided, and we can go from there!

"I think Landon's transcript that you did for me is excellent. I just made two copies because he is applying at two colleges today. I am very grateful for all your help, I was really panicking and desperately wanted to do it right, I feel incredible relief now to know that it is done and looks so professional. Today I viewed your dvd about scholarships. I took four pages of notes, it was just full of good information. Thankfully I can watch it again to be sure I did not miss anything. I look forward to seeing the other dvd Finding a College. I may watch it tomorrow, we need to get this done asap.”

"I also want to highly recommend Lee's services to anyone who has questions about the high school years! I had a consultation with her yesterday and it was so helpful and amazing to watch Allison's transcript fill before my very eyes. I think as homeschoolers we can be VERY critical of our little schools and I didn't even realize how much was learned last year. Lee's service is truly a blessing and her rates are very reasonable! I will be using her service again next year and probably every year until both of my older kids are graduated.”

"I want to thank to thank you, once again, for your help with Charlie's transcripts. As you know, it's tough to get back in public school after Homeschooling for many years. The first few weeks of High School were very daunting, to say the least. But, things got better. Last night my other son Nick and I went to the inaugural Senior Awards Night at the new Bonney Lake High School. Charlie, along with 23 other seniors were presented with the Double Gold Honor Cords, for achieving highest academic honors with an accumulated gpa of 3.76 or higher! I believe that without your help he might not even be graduating this year, let alone with top honors. I wish we knew what his plans for furthering his education were earlier, as he may have been awarded a scholarship or two. As soon as we decide which college he wants to go to, I would like to ask for your help once again, as I know you will be very helpful. His friend, Drew Chapman was presented with a FULL scholarship to WEST POINT valued at around $300,000! His parents would not have been able to afford anything like that without the appointment. Thank you , Lee for all your help,”

"I love what you did and also the suggestions you made. I was wondering about those same things -- grade point average with the college credits, trends, etc. I will have to think it over a little bit, but it really helps having someone else give input like that.” - Julie in Seattle

"Though I'm pretty organized, I know I can't do the record keeping, transcripts etc. without your help, nor do I want to! I ... was able to see an example of your work. I'm completely impressed and thrilled to know ...the angel that placed your flyers around!”
- Leslie in Duvall

"Yes, Yes, Yes, I love it. I love the way it looks all written down. Thank you so much. Money well spent.” - Kerry in Billings

"I feel the same way. I could have prepared the transcript for my daughter. I had all of the information here... but it would have taken me FAR longer and it wouldn't have looked as nice. I love your format and your creative wording! For me your service is great for even those of us who *can* do it, but we don't have time.” - Cynthia in Montana
