"This is my fourth year homeschooling and Angie Cutlip has been the one administering my daughter’s yearly testing. I just recently found out about the ATC Homeschool Teacher Training Academy and decided to sign up. I finished everything last night and WOW, these courses were AMAZING! The steps were clear, easy to follow, and I was able to save everything I needed to my files. On top of that, it was affordable, which makes such a difference for homeschool families. I feel 10x more confident starting this homeschool year, especially with the resources Angie recommended. Earning two certificates was such a great feeling, but honestly, the knowledge and confidence I walked away with is the best part. I loved it so much that I bragged to my family, my husband, and even sent my sister my certificates, and she immediately asked how to sign up! That says it all. Angie, you did a wonderful job putting this together. If I had known about the academy sooner, I would have joined long ago. Highly recommend to any homeschool parent looking for real guidance, affordable training, and confidence in their journey. "

As a former classroom teacher, I'm no stranger to professional development. I spent years attending countless faculty meetings, conventions, workshops, & in-service trainings. Even when hours were required, I was always eager to learn & become the best teacher I could be. I even had the amazing opportunity to speak at conferences & train other teachers across North Carolina.
One of my biggest hurdles was tailoring instruction to meet the unique needs of every student. It also felt like paperwork was increasingly taking over actual teaching. It was during this time that the idea of homeschooling, a less common path back then but one that had always fascinated me, began to take root.
In 2001, after my first child arrived, I decided to stay home & homeschool. My initial thought was to homeschool just through elementary school; I admit, higher-level math felt a bit daunting! Plus, I knew very little about homeschooling itself.
Back then, with dial-up internet, finding information was quite the adventure! I relied heavily on my instincts & years of classroom experience. But I quickly discovered that homeschooling was a truly different world from traditional classroom teaching. My perspective gradually shifted, & over two decades later, my children have been homeschooled all the way through, with early college being their first "school" experience.

My 15 yr old son and I had the pleasure to meet Angie for the WJ test this morning. It was such a positive, encouraging & fun experience!
Yes, my son said the test was fun and he wants to test with Angie every year. He is excited & confident about his academics and can’t wait to try all the tips & recommendations Angie gave him!
Thank you Angie, for making such a meaningful impact in my son’s education!! - Deysha Hicks, Wake Forest, NC
I can say from experience that she knows what she is doing! My daughter now has grown in confidence this year. Her spelling and reading have thoroughly expanded in skill levels. If you are questioning changing something like I did - don’t. Trust the process! I was set on continuing one curriculum. After several more months of struggling to make progress, I took Angie’s advice. I started over with her suggestion to switch up our reading. All I can say is, I wish I had started it when she first recommended it. My daughter loves the program.
Dear Angie, Thank you for sharing your inspirational message with our Lighthouse Homeschooling Members. Your speech was uplifting and encouraging. Your personal stories of homeschooling remind us that what we do is essential in our children's lives. We are so grateful that you shared your time and expertise with us. You made a difference.

Angie is so personable and warm. My oldest child has ADHD and some anxiety and was very nervous to test, but Angie made him feel at ease.
I'd also suspected dyslexia and dysgraphia, but the doctor kept brushing me off because he wasn't behind in any subjects but spelling and reading. They kept chalking it up to inattention. His WJ test results actually did indicate a likelihood for dyslexia. Angie pointed out a few things that she noticed during testing that were indicators as well.
I sent his test results to the psychologist who diagnosed his ADHD and she agreed he needed more testing. It turned out that he does have phonological dyslexia, dysgraphia, and dyscalculia. These are all just labels BUT knowing he has these learning differences
has DRASTICALLY improved his life and his education. Our school days are now fun-filled and rarely a struggle. Angie also suggested he may have tracking and convergence issues. She was right about that as well. One round of vision therapy and his reading level jumped 3 grade levels. I am so thankful for Angie's insight and experience.
Wow, where to begin with our first-ever experience with Angie Cutlip?! As relative newbies, who are only in our second year of homeschooling, the anxiety for me as a parent, as well as the unfortunate anxiety of my ten-year-old, has been alive and well on various levels. Like many, we’ve had to blindly navigate the never-ending options of curriculum, while also trying to stay calm and encouraged among those who don’t understand and question why we are doing it.
My why is my child, and Angie seems to understand that perfectly. My super bright, yet very shy and socially anxious daughter entered the test nervous and scared, but ended it cool as a cucumber with a genuine smile that oozed a confidence I haven’t seen from her in quite some time. She even said, “Mom, it was kinda fun.” Ummm, who is this child, and where did my daughter in near tears for two hours on the way to the test go?! To say I was relieved and grateful for that response is an understatement.
Angie’s years of experience, exhaustive knowledge of score breakdowns, and kind nature served both my daughter and me well as we both left feeling encouraged and even empowered to continue on our homeschool journey. More than the scores though, we left equipped with a better understanding of my daughter’s learning style, and of the curriculum that might work well for her.
All of that to say, we will definitely be back for future testing. It was well worth the time and effort in our attempt to gain better insight and direction as we continue to on our homeschooling adventure. It’s a lot to take on, but it can be done when you have people to help guide the way!
