The Teaching Company. As stated earlier, we suggest you begin with a good book or two about homeschooling, and proceed slowly before making any investment or commitment in materials. Homeschoolers usually find that they need far less than they first expected to need. These programs and books dealing with curriculum advice, correspondence programs, or related support are only a small sample of the wide variety of such resources that some HSC members have used. You can also call your local HSC County Contact to ask about programs within your area.
