Before You Fly Away Parent Teacher Guide

Before You Fly Away — Parent & Teacher Guide

How do I actually run this course without spending hours preparing every week?

You bought Before You Fly Away because your student needs to leave home ready. But running a course like this — with conversations, milestones, and a real interview — feels like a second job. It shouldn't. The Parent & Teacher Guide is the operating manual: pacing for a full school year, conversation prompts that surface what your student actually thinks, and review checkpoints that tell you when they're ready to move on.

This is not a teacher edition that lectures you. It assumes you've never run a course like this before — and assumes you don't have time to figure it out as you go. Open to the chapter you're on, read the page, run the conversation. That's it.

Includes the canonical Mock Interview Guide — the same structured interview, scoring rubric, and debrief script we use to certify a student is ready for a real first interview.

🎓 What's inside

• Course overview & philosophy — what this course teaches and how to teach it
• Three pacing tracks — slow, standard, accelerated — with full year schedules
• Chapter-by-chapter facilitation — what to do, what to watch for, what to push on
• Five milestone reviews — clear checkpoints with criteria, not vibes
• Mock Interview Guide — opening script, eleven questions with hints and follow-ups, seven-criterion rubric, structured debrief
• Closing presentation handbook — how to set the stage and run the final review
• Glossary of terms and tools & resources directory

📚 Great for: Parents and homeschool educators running BYFA · Co-op leaders facilitating in groups · Tutors and mentors guiding one-on-one · Anyone who wants the answer to "what should I be doing this week?"
