Home Schooling - There Are Some Disadvantages
There are a number of advantages to home schooling your
children. They get the educational material you know they should
be getting. They get the one-on-one attention you know they
deserve. Moreover, they don't encounter any of the problems with
schools today like drugs and bullies. While you may know about
the advantages, you should certainly take some time to think
about the disadvantages to this method of educating your
children before you enroll them in your personal academy.
If you think you are ready to home school your children,
consider the following. First, think about whether or not you
are truly ready to stay at home and spend hours on end
instructing your child. Don't forget that being an instructor
involves subject area research, create a curriculum, and
assessing your child's competence. Next, think about whether or
not you truly have the effective teaching skills necessary to
help your child understand the concepts you are attempting to
teach. You should also make sure that you are able to offer your
child subject material that is correct. Furthermore, be sure
that you truly understand your child from an academic
standpoint. Knowing your child's strengths and weaknesses is an
important part of the educational process. In addition to
academics, part of the importance of school is socialization. If
you are unable to provide activities for you child to help with
the socialization process, home schooling probably is not for
you. The last thing you should consider is whether or not you
feel you can be solely held responsible for your child's
education and knowledge.
Home schooling may seem like the perfect answer to your child's
education problems, but unless you can competently provide
instruction and socialization activities, it would be best to
steer clear of the entire process. You want your child to get a
good education to help them get a solid start in life, and you
simply cannot do that if you are unprepared to dedicate yourself
to your child's education.
