I've only been at this for six months now, but what seems to be working for two of my children is to combine parent-student-paired activity (reading/watching course material) and practice exercises (usually solo but sometimes with parent if it is a new subject). I feel like the paired activity is basically following the apprenticeship model, as I focus on showing them how to get through the material quickly and how to look up supplemental information or follow interesting tangents to keep it interesting. The practice exercises then are more relaxing for them as they can just tune out to a certain extent and work through problems on their own. One thing that is funny is that I am absolutely learning as well as we do this. About half of the material we have covered before I don't remember ever learning in high school, and the rest is a good refresher.
