Happy Homeschool Mom

HomeTrail has wonderful services for all homeschoolers of any age. I am so glad that HomeTrail is there for us this year. Help in any need. Help with Work for assignments and attendance is top notch. I won’t be going any other way with my homeschool.

Short learning curve, long term use.

I’m a homeschool mom to a 9th grader. Because of this, I knew I needed something to reflect the intense workload that would be preparing for high school using the roadmap we made. I looked around for an hours tracking app and to my surprise I found this incredible app. I also teach art classes so it’s perfect to upload for homeschoolers! I’m so happy to say this will be incredibly useful not only in looking back but for tracking learning across the board for the future. Thank you!

The idea is great

I thought the description and idea of the purpose of the app great. However after creating an account I didn’t find setting things up easy to understand nor intuitive. The titles of the sections of activities and what is curriculum confusing to differentiate. Other people may have picked it up easier than I did. I recommend trying it out to see if you find it easier. I do consider myself tech knowledgeable. I just happened to not find it easy to navigate setting it up.
