I’m so excited to finally share something I’ve been working on for a long time—my new book, Real Learning for Real Life: A Gentle Approach to the Teen Years and Beyond! If you’ve been looking for a practical, faith-filled, and doable way to homeschool high school—this is it. 💛
This book is all about helping you homeschool grades 8–12 with purpose, confidence, and simplicity. Whether you’re a relaxed homeschooler, unschooler, or somewhere in between, this guide will walk you through:
✅ Creating a high school plan that fits your teen
✅ Using real-life experiences for credit
✅ Building life skills, faith, and independence
✅ Planning transcripts (even if you don’t follow a traditional path)
✅ Encouraging your teen into adulthood with purpose
You can purchase the book in print, or if you’d like to save on printing costs, I’ve also made a PDF download available.
✨ Over 500 Pages of Printable Resources!
Alongside the book, I’ve created over 500 pages of printables to help you track courses, plan transcripts, log hours, and more. These resources make applying what you read simple and stress-free!
🧮 Need Math and English too? I’ve got you covered.
To make things even easier, I’ve bundled up the two core subjects every high schooler needs: math and English!
To keep the main book more affordable and not overwhelm you with printing hundreds of extra pages, I’ve created two companion books:
📘 Real Math for Real Life – A gentle but complete high school math course based in real-life skills like budgeting, consumer math, and more.
📙 Real English for Real Life – A full English course including grammar, writing, and practical communication—all in a simple, step-by-step format.
Each book is available separately or as a complete set, depending on your needs. These are available in print for ease of use and long-term reference. Answers included in Both Books

Mama, take a deep breath—this year doesn’t have to be stressful. You don’t need a color-coded wall calendar or a complicated curriculum to give your kids a great education. What they need most is a calm, confident mom who’s willing to show up, love them well, and lead with grace. Let’s choose peace over pressure, real-life learning over rigid schedules, and joy over overwhelm. You’ve got this—and I’m cheering you on every step of the way. 💛
Love, Amy
