Gina’s homeschooling journey began over 15 years ago. She and her husband Carl have three children, two of whom are now college students. As a mother of three with diverse interests and talents, Gina is familiar with different learning styles and has used a wide variety of curricula. She has been traveling to conventions with her family for over 10 years and thoroughly enjoys meeting and talking with other homeschool families in her capacity with Rainbow Resource.
Ruth Tennis home educated four children for 16 years from K to graduation. Her favorite homeschool subjects were science and history and her preferred teaching methods included multi-learning style activities, developing inquisitiveness and critical thinking, and lots of great literature. Ruth has undergraduate degrees in English and communication and a Master’s Degree in English from Truman University, MO. Ruth taught college-level English and English as a Second Language in China and Illinois. She believes parents are essential in helping children develop a love of learning, effective communication skills, and a heart for God and people. A consultant for Rainbow Resource Center since 2015, Ruth loves helping families meet their homeschool needs.
