Homeschooling parents often do not have a sufficiently deep understanding of the subjects they teach and thus miss opportunities of getting that "Aha!" effect when their children's penny drops. Here are 2 maths examples :-
Example 1 : give more than one way of multiplying 2 integers. Example 2 : state the short-cut rules for testing divisibility by primes below 50.
"The more I read of Jeneane, the more I like." --Mike Arrington, TechCrunch
"She may be the only blogger who CAN tell a stranger about rock-n-roll." --Christopher Locke, Cluetrain Manifesto, Gonzo Marketing, Bombast Transcripts
"I've never met her, but if I did I'd probably run the other way." --Dave Winer, Scripting News
