PR & Advertising

The Holistic Homeschooler is written by Michelle Cannon, a home educator and writer. It is a resource for those interested in the Charlotte Mason method of education. It is also the home of "The Face of Homeschooling", a very successful monthly feature in which the blog author interviews homeschool parents in an effort to challenge the stereotypes of homeschoolers.

Audience

Based on a recent survey, the majority of my readers are stay-at-home, homeschooling mothers, 25 – 45 years of age with at least 2 children. They are interested in the Charlotte Mason, Classical, Eclectic and Unschooling styles of homeschool education. 90% of my readers are located in the U.S. and Canada.
