FOUNDER & CONSULTANT MUSEformer teacher

Farrar doesn't believe that any one approach or curricula is right for all families. She has an extensive knowledge of different curricula, resources, and philosophies, and has developed her own curricula. She also has experience with alternative forms of assessment. Crafting individualized plans and routines that really work is a particular passion of Farrar's. She is an expert on children's and young adult literature, and on incorporating good books into learning.
Farrar teaches history and English at Aim Academy. She's also the author of Tweens, Tough Times, and Triumphs: Homeschooling the Middle Grades.
When not teaching or working, Farrar is probably solving a NYT puzzle, reading a mystery novel, or trying to resist putting in another batch of peanut butter chocolate chip cookies. She lives in Washington, DC.
“a homeschooling parent in the Washington D.C. areaWithout Farrar's recommendations we might still be flailing around trying to figure out how to get started. She has her own philosophy for her kids, but was very receptive to where we are and what our lifestyle and philosophy are. She made suggestions that fit our life and was not pushy or judgmental about what she thought we "should" be doing.
