As an 18-year veteran homeschooling mom and an ardent life-long
learner, one of Heather Frommacks’ favorite things in life is a rich
conversation—especially when that conversation is about homeschooling
and the heart. She serves as the Program Manager for HSLDA’s Educational
Consultants and is a teacher, writer, speaker, encourager, and
listener. Believing the adventure of life is fullest when courageously
shared, she delights in engaging and inspiring others through
authenticity, relevance, and humor.
Heather is a Registered Dietitian (RDN) currently pursuing her master’s
degree in Educational Psychology with a view towards her PhD. Her
educational journey has also included post-graduate work in biblical
counseling and Teaching English as a Foreign Language (TEFL).
The school
of life richly informs her message. Her experiences include international adoption, 14
moves, world travel to more than 15 countries, and designing and
remodeling homes, all while homeschooling!
Heather and her husband have five
beloved and creative children, ages ranging from 10–24 years old. Their two youngest were joyfully adopted from Ethiopia nine years ago. She’s
homeschooled all of her children, first as a stay-at-home mom, and now
as a full-time working mom. She calls homeschooling the “best and most
challenging career I’ve ever had.”
