Jennifer is a mom to two boys, 15 and 10, and has been homeschooling for about eight years now. She loves being in a community of like-minded people who are grounded in Christ. She graduated from UCO with a Bachelor’s degree in business, but her real passion is in teaching math and science classes.  Her goal is to have fun while learning.  When you understand what it is that you are learning along with the purpose of what you’re learning, while still having fun, it tends to be retained and keep the students engaged.
