Concerning homeschooling, some parents are well qualified to home school their children while others are not. So, as a start some children have totally incompetent teachers.
Children learn or should learn important social skills in the presence of other children. Unless an effort is made to see that children have socialization with other children, they miss out on learning an important part of education.
Education consists in learning a variety of subjects. If a parent does not consider some of them important, a large part of a student's education can be lacking.
The opportunity to participate in organized clubs and sports can be important for some students. Home schooled students can miss out on these.
Generally and unless there is a specific problem, the advantage of home schooling is greatest in the earliest grades.
The answer depends on what you consider to be the five disadvantages of home schooling.
There are a lot of good things about homeschooling, but there are disadvantages, like less socialization with peers. Choosing your own curriculum is good, but some topics might get missed and things like projects and field trips might not be the same.
No, it is considered homeschooling.
is there any homeschooling that is not online
I'm not sure if I've ever seen an article on the downsides to homeschooling - there are just too many advantages! A study was completed last year which you may be interested in reading: Perhaps a downside could be burnout by parents, partcularly if they've been homeschooling several children for several years. Good luck! Since you asked, NBC did a "Law and Order - Special Victims Unit" on homeschooling being a cover for child abuse. (Go to nbc.com and search for articles on homeschooling.) However, I think that is a grossly inaccurate portrayal of most homeschooling families. Like the last person said, there are only too many advantages to homeschooling that outweigh any "dangers or disadvantages."
Some advantages of homeschooling are, the child would be able to have hands on learning, one-on-one. Some disadvantages are the children may not have a very good social life, children need to be able to play with friends. I think it depends on the best interest for the child.
it depends on what type of homeschooling your doing but with most homeschooling you get better grades because everything is open book and you can use the internet on any question even tests, well this is for internet homeschooling.
Secular Homeschooling - magazine - was created in 2007.
My parents started homeschooling me when I was in third grade. I loved it!
Homeschooling is free! But you have to buy the supplies you need.
There are many stories on homeschooling forums about the cons of homeschooling. Most of these revolve around socialization and not having the children integrated into society.
Homeschooling is in fact legal in all of the Australian states and territories.
