Official Homeschooling Expert
Lisa Preston

Lisa Preston spent 17 years teaching Kindergarten through fourth grades in both private and public school settings.

While teaching, Lisa researched the brain and accelerated learning techniques to help her children learn faster and easier. After writing a grant for brain-based learning for her school, Lisa implemented her newfound learning techniques in the classroom. She discovered special strategies that made learning much easier for her students and shares her research at www.homeschoolhelper.com. .

Her twenty-three years of personality research also helped her individualize learning for each child based on their specific personality type.

Lisa confesses, "I saw that my homeschool friends were able to give their children a much higher quality education than I was - with a bachelors and masters in education. Frustrated by the emphasis on test scores and the decreasing acceptance for creativity in the classroom, I decided to quit teaching in the public schools and start encouraging families to homeschool."

Lisa lives in Kentucky and loves writing, researching, and especially playing school with her nieces. She has homeschooled for other families and authors materials for homeschoolers.
