Ann
Customer Care and Conventions
She has homeschooled for 12 years, youngest started RS from the beginning with her older child (high school- er) joining in for the games and also learning strategies and mental math. She loves ALL the levels of RS but her ultimate favorite is Levels G and H that gives such a fantastic foundation for upper level mathematics and that much needed explanation of why. She enjoys helping people along their journey of homeschooling. Ann and her family go biking, running, and camping and she enjoys gardening and reading. You can reach her at Ann@RightStartMath.com.

Rachel
Customer Care and Conventions
Rachel Anderson has been homeschooling for eleven years. She has been married to Steve for 20 years and has been blessed with four children: Brady – 16, Logan -14, Parker -12, and Makenna – 8. Prior to homeschooling she graduated from Cincinnati Christian University (formerly known as Cincinnati Bible College) with degrees in Music and Business. She worked in Human Resources, Information Technology Department and as a Music Minister at her local church. Once she had children and started to homeschool, she realized that one of her children has significant learning struggles. As a result, she has done considerable research learning how to teach the ‘Struggling Learner’ in her family and loves to pass on her knowledge and experience to other parents looking for help.
Rachel has used RightStart Math from Kindergarten on. In fact she has “graduated” two children from RightStart Math and had been thrilled with her kids’ understanding of math concepts. She currently responds to emails sent to RightStart Math regarding questions about the curriculum or simply parents needing some guidance in their homeschool situations. She also enjoys working at homeschool conventions and sharing information about RightStart Math at the booth or in workshops. You can reach her at Rachel@RightStartMath.com.
Debbie
Customer Care and Conventions
Debbie, who started teaching her children at home in 1993, has six children and currently three grandchildren. In school Debbie did well in math so thought teaching it would be easy. Wrong! What she realized is that while she could do math, she didn’t understand it enough to help her children when they didn’t understand. She tried multiple math curriculum in her search for understanding. After attending a RightStart presentation at a local home school book fair, Debbie made one of the best decisions in her homeschool journey and transitioned 3 of her children into Level E and started her two youngest in Level B.
As she taught her children with RightStart, she too found herself understanding and being able to apply concepts which opened up a love for math that she didn’t know she had. She has taught all the RightStart Levels and currently attends conferences so she can share her love for RightStart with others looking for a math curriculum. She recently stepped in to assist RightStart with their Facebook page. Debbie also teaches American History and Civics to Jr. High students at a homeschooling outsource school in Texas, works with the youth at her church as well as mentoring some of the ladies too. In her free time she loves photography, reading, researching and doing puzzles. She can be reached at Debbie@RightStartMath.com.

leana
Conventions
Leana and her husband started homeschooling 9 years ago. When they first decided to homeschool, they attended a local Homeschool Conference with a goal of finding a math curriculum that they liked. After much research they settled on RightStart and haven’t gone back. One of the greatest parts of teaching with RightStart for Leana was that, even though she did fairly well in math herself, she was learning things with her kids and is really understanding math. She has also been able to watch how each of her 4 daughters has benefited from RightStart even with their different personalities and learning styles. With her oldest just finishing level G, she loves watching the critical thinking that has come from RightStart show itself in higher level maths and even other subjects.
Leana and her family live in Calgary, Alberta Canada. When she’s not teaching her girls she can be found outside somewhere shooting archery, camping, gardening, snowshoeing… whatever the weather allows.
