Mentoring Your Teen: Charting the Course to Successful Adulthood by Inge Cannon $49ppd. In excellent, like-new condition.
I purchased this at one of Inge’s Transcript Bootcamps. It gave me all the information and confidence I needed to put together a transcript for my son.
But it has a ton of other information, too.
It is a storehouse of information, resources, articles, and practical advice compiled into one volume!
This “D-ring” notebook with full color cover and spine inserts includes tabbed dividers for each session title and two vinyl trays to hold all 10 audiocassettes.
This huge notebook of info sells for $99. I am done with mine. It is excellent, like-new condition. It even includes a blank transcript that can be used or photocopied to have extra on hand. I’m selling for $49 and I will pay the shipping on this!
Session 1
Parents as Mentors
Five crucial decisions mark the passage from youth to adulthood. These demand careful direction, wise discernment, and prayerful counsel. Parents are in a unique position to provide that necessary guidance, and the Bible gives much encouragement for how it should be done. What is mentoring? Can anyone do it? What opposition will I face? How will I know if I have been successful? These are just a few of the questions this session answers in laying the foundation for parental mentorship.
Session 2
Mentoring for Academic Excellence
What subjects should a young person study to earn a Biblical high school "credential"? What do employers want their workers to know? Where can a parent find worthy materials to teach these things? Answers to these questions are offered from the perspective of what God wants us to know.
Session 3
Mentoring with Quality Records
Do you find the "educationese" involved in giving your child an official high school transcript intimidating? Do you wonder what to include and how to record it? Discover what employers and colleges want. Match it to your curriculum priorities, and seal your child's educational credibility. Then when it's all said and done, sign your child's diploma and plan for graduation. You can do it, and if you're home educating, you must!
Session 4
Mentoring in Portfolio Development
If you are 14 years of age or older and do not have a current résumé, you are behind! Find out what to include and how to say it--even when the amount of formal work experience you may have is minimal. Then polish up the presentation, add the element of a rich portfolio to document your experience, and give it a dynamic delivery.
Session 5
Mentoring in Career Selection
Where do parents begin when they want to research the vocational possibilities that are available to their young people? Learn how to develop an extensive profile of your son's or daughter's talents, spiritual gifts, personality strengths, achievements, and interests so that you can efficiently analyze options and recognize opportunities. This session offers several specific resources to help.
Session 6
Mentoring for Successful Employment
Discover how to use your comprehensive transcript and creative portfolio, along with the clues provided by your profile, to set up and conduct interviews for volunteer assignments and paid positions. Several basic etiquette tips are included in this practical workshop about working effectively in ministry or the marketplace.
Session 7
Mentoring in College Decisions
The world of higher education has changed drastically during the past century. Examine the benefits and challenges of choosing traditional "higher education" for the vocational training process. Learn what questions to ask when screening your potential choices. What doors of opportunity are unlocked with a college degree? Is the investment of time and energy in seeking this "key" worth the return you will realize in the job market? Should you strive for a "well-rounded" liberal arts credential, or is a focus on specific vocational skills more valuable? Is accreditation important? How are today's colleges and universities responding to the needs and demands of the marketplace? Would "distance learning" work for you? What is the crowning factor that should govern the decision about whether or not to enroll?
Session 8
Mentoring for College Admission
Can home-educated high school graduates get into college? Where and how have they been accepted? Have they been successful on the nation's campuses? What do college admissions officers require of these unconventional students? Where can you find SAT and ACT information? What timetable should govern your inquiry and application process? Are scholarships available to help pay the bills? How can you earn college credit for out-of-college achievements? This session provides direction for all these areas in addition to offering information about military enlistment and enrollment in the nation's military academies.
Session 9
Mentoring in Apprenticeship
On-the-job training programs have a long history of efficient preparation of the nation's future work force. A clear definition of apprenticeship is presented from both Renaissance and modern day perspectives. We then analyze current government and private programs and explore the "pioneer" requirements of crafting your own program. You might even find that the best option for your son or daughter is a judicious combination of college courses blended with hands-on experience in an office, laboratory, or shop. What elements must be included in such a process? Do you know how to draft an appropriate "contract" with the provider of your child's training? This session also identifies several follow-up activities and discusses serious cautions. We even include a few home school testimonies to demonstrate that it can be done.
If you are interested, please email me. I prefer Paypal, but will accept money order or check (will hold).
Thanks!
With joy!
