Homeschooling: What You Need to Know About
What is Homeschooling?
Online homeschooling involves making use of an online learning platform to connect students to teachers, live lessons and interactive learning content. Many parents understand the benefits of providing their children with a personalised education through homeschooling but think it is not an attainable solution due to their work schedule and the need to have a dedicated person on hand to guide the child through their online curriculum.
Why homeschooling?
Many parents feel that homeschooling offers their children a more balanced outlook that focuses on their desires, interests, and talents, that is not found in traditional classrooms. A traditional classroom environment can cause unnecessary negative competition and peer pressure. This can lead to a negative attitude toward learning and social pressures which can affect students’ mental health. Homeschooling is a noticeably more efficient way of schooling. There is far less time wasted on mundane routines, like assemblies and drive time etc. This means that you can better invest that time in actual learning.
Is homeschooling better?
The families who are turning to homeschooling want a more flexible curriculum that allows their children to learn at their own pace. Weighing up the pros and cons to find a curriculum that will meet your child’s, and your family’s, needs, is crucial. Students generally feel safe and comfortable in their homes. It keeps them away from issues like bullying and negative company which may adversely affect or influence them. Even though these issues do not occur in every school, online homeschooling still remains a better option for parents who worry about the safety of their children.
Are Homeschooled Students More Successful?
It is important to note that homeschoolers experience greater opportunities to develop in a more balanced, holistic way. Homeschoolers are given more space to think and learn creatively and explore analytically, which develops practical life skills which are just as, if not more important than academic achievement. Homeschooling gives students and parents the opportunity to focus on the inherent talents of the child and nurture them. For instance, a child who is musically oriented can be given music classes alongside their academic lessons, and at an hour convenient to them. This will widen the child’s education and make it a more progressive experience.
International Curriculum
The Cambridge (or International British Curriculum) is the most popular homeschooling curriculum in Indonesia. It is a highly-regarded and accredited primary and secondary school programme. It is based on the world’s most widely-recognised British system of learning and assessment. It encompasses global concepts, making it fully international and independent of traditional educational philosophy.
