Congratulations, you’re doing it. Whether you are investigating home education or you’re a veteran, I’m impressed. Single parents are the Marines of the homeschooling world. There are many ways to make it to the finish line, but even if you are super human, you need other people to help you get there, right? Let’s take the acronym TRIBE and discover the five types of people you need to have in your school life to continue succeeding. You have the conviction; you have the motivation; now, let’s put boots on the ground in this practical discussion about personnel in the field. Semper Fidelis!

Mandie Rose owns a mobile small engine repair business and works as the primary mechanic. She’s married to Nick, and they have five children ages 6-18. She also teaches small engine camps with hundreds of students each year and has homeschooled since the beginning. Her passion is actively engaging students to work with their hands, promoting the trades by encouraging tradesmen to do the same, and engaging parents to educate their children based on interest and aptitude. You can meet her at this year’s Trades Fair!
