Whether you want to refine your homeschooling approach or prepare your child for college, Evard Educational Consulting is your go-to resource for your homeschooling needs.

I prioritize your children's individuality to create a homeschooling plan aligned with their needs and yours.

A Welcome Message From Me

We wanted to thank you so much for all your expert help and support last school year.  We couldn’t have done it without you and it was so fun to check in with you so many times during the year. We decided to give [a new local charter school] a try for this Fall.  …  We hope you won’t mind if we check in once and a while, since we may decide to homeschool again and would love to work with you again.

Elevate Your Homeschooling Experience for a Brighter Future

Navigating the world of homeschooling offers countless possibilities for your child's education. 

How do you choose between opportunities to create a positive experience for your family? How do you ensure your child is prepared and ready for college or their future career? 

A child's successful homeschooling journey involves considering your family’s daily life while balancing long-term educational goals. You also want to support your child’s creative endeavors and passions while providing them with the tools they need to succeed. 

That's why having an expert homeschooling and college consultant who prioritizes your child's present and future success is invaluable. From start to finish, you’ll receive the clarity you need to develop a personalized educational plan for your child. 

Empower Your Child's Homeschooling with Parental Expertise

As a parent who homeschooled her three children and the former leader of two successful homeschool cooperatives, I understand the challenges homeschooling families face. 

With over three decades of experience championing learning through meaningful experiences, I've mentored families and students to foster personal autonomy, develop their homeschooling philosophies, and ignite their passions for learning. 

Specializing in tailored educational plans, from homeschooling proposals to college application strategies, I support young people on their personal educational journeys through a holistic lens. I’m dedicated to helping your child succeed now and in the future.

    Working with Michele was essential! Before we started the college application process, we had no idea how to turn everything my daughters had done, in all their activities, programs, home school, and classes, into an application that admissions committees would even understand. But with her easy to follow, thorough process, we were able to put their best foot forward and help them stand out as the amazing students and people they are, with applications that really reflected their hard work and unique strengths. And they both got into very competitive schools in the midst of a tough bump in application rates! Thank you, Michele, for helping our kids find the right schools for them and step into the future with confidence!

  • Parent of a homeschooling senior

    Thank you for the wisdom you generously shared with me and my husband. It helped guide our conversations with our daughter the past several days. I told her how proud of her I was for revisiting a suggestion she previously rejected so firmly.

    Thank you so much for checking up on me. I’m doing well and happy to say that I committed to Trinity University. Thank you again for your mentorship this year. I’m so appreciative for every zoom call and essay edit :) I hope to keep you updated with all the cool things I accomplish during my time at Trinity.

  • Homeschooled senior

    I really appreciate all of your help guiding us through this whole process, and am very glad that it resulted with being able to attend a great university at a price my family can easily afford.

  • Kristen P.

    "This semester I’m a writing peer tutor for the freshman first year experience course. I help students with developing and editing their essays, which feels reminiscent of our time working together!"

  • D Shea, Massachusetts

    From the second we spoke with Michele we knew she was the right person to help walk us through the process. We found Michele to consistently have a warm, buoyant personality all while working tirelessly to answer seemingly endless questions! With all of that said, my daughter is now thriving while attending her #1 choice, which is a top tier university that boasts a 5.6% acceptance rate. While there are no promises made to a specific outcome, I feel very confident that any child, from grade school on up, would benefit from Michele's vast homeschooling knowledge and warm spirit.

And that solution is as simple as scheduling a no-cost discovery call to discover if I’m the right person to help you and your child transform their educational journey.

I warmly welcome and support individuals of all races, ethnicities, sexual orientations, gender identities, backgrounds, religions, and cultures.
