I homeschooled my youngest son all the way through 12th grade and I can say it was the best decision I’ve ever made….you’ll never regret it, I promise!
The person that gave the desk for free, would be amazed how it looks now! Beautiful... That's good you're home schooling your children, best of luck 👍🏻
Great makeover. You won't regret homeschooling. My twins graduated last summer...i homeschooled for 20 years total! It was best for our family. Congrats! Enjoy this time with your kiddos; it really does fly by
I don’t know which I like better, the desk or the rug. They complement each other beautifully! I think you will do a fantastic job home schooling your kiddos. You and Nelson will bring so much to the table!
Great news Yami homeschooling is the most rewarding experience. I am a grandma now and my son and daughter in law homeschool too. They have a homeschool community they rely on. Public school is not what it used to be in our day. You are the best instructor here on YT, so it is only fitting that you will be an idyllic teacher to your kiddos. The desk came out superb BTW. I love the area rug too, it anchors the space so well. God Bless!
The desk came out beautiful and looks like a brand new piece of furniture. I love the look of the naturally exposed wood. What a great “steal of a deal” you found. BRAVO!👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 Also, GOD’s speed and Blessings to you in your homeschooling endeavor.
Love the desk. As usual it looks bought. I don't blame you for home schooling your kids. I know all of you will love it and you will be a great teacher.
Hi Latina, you got to do what you got to do, don’t blame you for the decision, this issues gets to us so we got to keep our kids safe, the desk was awesome, blessings!!!
Desk is perfect! Welcome to homeschooling! It’s best thing for our family. Wishing u all the best. Remember the first years are hardest. Don’t give up!
With everything happening right now my daughter is home schooling too. It not easy but you have to do what's best for your kids. Good for you! The desk turned out amazing. I don't get tired of watching your channel. I wish you were my Latina next door. 🤣
Great desk!! We homeschooled for 6 years. Once you get a rhythm to your day, it is great! Give yourself Grace!! It is an adjustment for everyone. Don't feel like you have to recreate a classroom. The best part of homeschooling is being able to tailor learning to your child's needs & interests!!
I am so glad you are homeschooling your children this year. Public school is great but with the health concerns now, Good for you guys. God bless and stay safe.
Thank you so much! We are very happy with our decision to homeschool. In actuality the public schools in our area are no longer a great way to educate young children.
Yami!!! As always, this project came out amazing and I know the transformation for “The Latinos School” space will be as well! Your sacrifice will not be in vain! Cheering you on and praying for a smooth transition as you all begin this new chapter 🙏🏽💞.
The desk is beautiful! We unexpectedly were thrown into homeschooling last year. I was fortunate to have a very experienced friend who helped me navigate that new world and then found some local homeschooling groups that did monthly meet ups. The best piece of advice I received from my friend was start simple. Chose a math curriculum and an English curriculum and start with those. Once you have routine figured out for that, start adding on the other stuff (history, music, art, science, social studies etc.) one at a time (or rotate through them) You've got this and I look forward to hearing updates on this new chapter of yours!
Ya'll are wonderful parents. Your children are truly blessed and you will make a wonderful teacher. You teach this old lady everytime I was one of your videos. ...hehe....you have a personality that loves challenges. In these times home schooling is the answer. 😊👏🤗
A friend of mine homeschooled her children from kindergarten to high school. The children graduated with honors and both have college degrees and good jobs.
Wow! That desk came out very nice. The best to you and your kids with the homeschool. Thanks for sharing 🍎🚌 Your husband got a mullet because he is Business on the front and party on the back. That’s what our kids would tell their dad. Lol
Love the desk and congrats on home schooling your kids. With our current public school system, it seems like they are teaching more social justice than actually teaching reading, math, and English.
The desk is gorgeous and home schooling is a great option considering the pandemic but please figure out the socialization process too .But I know you'll figure out what is the best for your children.❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
@@TheLatinaNextDoor 🤗 to all of you.Local educators will help you organize your curriculum.I have lots of friends who have chosen homeschooling and they absolutely love the fact that they have more control over their children's education. My sister homeschooled her son with great success.
Loved how your desk turned out!!!! Great job!! Congratulations on the new journey of Homeschooling, I have decided to do the same for my family. So can’t wait to see your schoolroom!! God is good and He will guide us in the journey ahead!! Congratulations again, and I love your DIYs. God bless!
Love this transformation- I love how you see what can become out of what is. As a retired home school teacher I will offer one suggestion- When my children were young I read an article about a school teacher who took his classroom students outside each morning (weather permitting) for a 30 minute walk. Attention spans and retention of subject matter improved tremendously. I found this to be true with my own children. (I had been a classroom teacher of young children and all moment was very beneficial) There are so many choices for curriculum so I hope that you are able to settle on the one that is most beneficial to your children. Blessings
@@TheLatinaNextDoorI am glad. I hesitate to offer “advice”, especially on this topic, because so many have opinions. I have no doubt that you and Latino Engineer know what’s best for your family.
Homeschooling? Good for you! Just found your channel tonight because you talked about painting floors and that's my next project. I'm a novice at home diy'ing and I think you'll be a great help. And this desk turned out beautiful. I love the top.
I should have mentioned my floors are checkerboard black 'n white! It will be quite the project, but I'm game to do it, I believe I can and it will be lovely. I was going to use chalk paint, but I like the Rustoleum you used and I think it's a better option.
Wow that desk is beautiful!!!!! Great job. I have to laugh when you inserted the "yep that's a mullet" my hubby is from Chile and he had one like that in the 80's and 90's.....now he has lost most of his hair. lol Love all your videos.
Wow that was an awesome up cycle! Of course job well done! I’m sure you guys will master your home classroom no doubt! Bless your heart my hat is off to you! 🙏🏾💞
Turned out gorgeous !! The rug is really pretty too, you have great taste !! Good luck with your home schooling, you've got this girl, don't doubt your abilities.. you are amazing 💞
Yami what a little bit of repair and paint can do to make a difference in piece of furniture that was ready for the trash. You both did an amazing job. 👏
Hi Yami! Wow, what a transformation on that desk. ❤️. Maybe you will run across something for your new “school room” that you can incorporate the look for less. ?! 🤔. Just a thought but certainly take care of the familia needs. 😉
The desk came out looking great but I knew it would. I can't blame you for home schooling your children. Sending you hugs and prayers for a good school year at home.
Best of luck, many memories will be made with home schooling. Love the table. Take care. 2 weeks ago your subscription disappeared, I was looking a round for your videos, found I was unsubscribed, click your back.🤗👏
A class room, I was waiting for you to announce it was going to be for a nursery. :) That desk came out so gorgeous! Your craft room is really coming along lovely. Stay safe, and stay sane, Teacher!
The desk turned out awesome, just as I knew it would. Everything you do, you do so very well. I KNOW you homeschooling your kiddos will be awesome because of that very reason. I have to admit, I was wondering if you were going to say that you were expecting a fourth child and therefore had to get a room ready, LOL. Looking forward to what is next, love your videos.
We’re homeschooling our 9 year old for the first time also. We started a few weeks ago just to get in the routine. So far it’s working well for us. Good luck with your journey and I LOVE your desk.
***Check out the STUDIO progress where the desk will be! ruclips.net/video/PCP3n7hJpv8/видео.html
I can't believe you took something destined for the trash and turned it into a beautilful piece of furniture!!! Love it!!!!
The desk looks so good. Congratulations on the home schooling, such a sane choice these days.
I homeschooled my youngest son all the way through 12th grade and I can say it was the best decision I’ve ever made….you’ll never regret it, I promise!
The person that gave the desk for free, would be amazed how it looks now! Beautiful... That's good you're home schooling your children, best of luck 👍🏻
Desk is fabulous! Pray for your home schooling. It takes a special person to give of herself to teach her children at home. You will do well!
You got this homeschooling thing! I did it for 22 years! Loved seeing the excitement in my kids when they "got it"! Miss those days.
Oh, and the desk turned out beautiful!

If this was my beautiful desk, I would like to show it to the previous owner. It looks awesome.
Home schooling is an excellent choice if anyone can do it in this day and age. You’ll be great at it I have no doubt👍👏🏼❤️🌸
That's exactly what I would do with it. The gray and the butcher block pair nicely.
OMG your mullet comment killed me. Lol. The desk turned out great! And such a helpful hubby!
