There are resources like: Grammarly.com or hire tutors if you don't feel competent MOOCs (Massive Open Online Courses). These are awesome courses from universities like MIT, UC Berkeley and more. Teens don't usually get course credit, so they should log hours. Some will grade and score if you pay a little. Here are a couple of them the providers: EdX Coursera Through companies like Audible: Great Courses (Teaching Company) (Be sure to log hours to earn the credit) Dual Credit online from local college Be sure your homeschool highschoolers are ready to do college-level work (at a college pace) because their grade stays with them through the rest of their college years. Some courses transfer and some don't. Ask the college that your teens will be transferring to. Remember: Ask questions! Join Sabrina and Vicki for a fun chat about digital learning.
