Jill Pearson-Keltner M.Ed. and Jennifer Mercer M.Ed. are California-credentialed teachers who facilitate high school classes for small groups of homeschooled students.  We have each worked public and private schools over over 30 years, homeschooled our own children for 14 years, and worked as educational facilitators for homeschooling families for 14 years.  We know teaching and we know homeschooling.  We couldn't find what we wanted for our own kids when they were homeschooling, so we created the Learning Journeys Forum (LJF) high school classes.  Our high school classes are rigorous AND fun; they meet standards AND are student-directed; they meet individual needs AND develop group learning skills.  Over our many years of experience, we have learned that all students need respect, a voice in their education, and to have fun.  We operate non-coersive learning groups in a flipped classroom format where students complete research at home and come to class for hands-on labs and activities as well as partner and class learning, discussions, presentations, and writing.  We respect and listen to our students in order to address each of their individual needs and goals.  Our students have gone on to UC's, California State schools, private universities, community colleges, and directly to work.  We support and empower high school students as they create and follow their own learning journeys.
