Top 5 Myths of HomeSchooling.

Dispelling The Fiction..

That homeschoolers aren't qualified to teach their own kids, homeschooled kids can't be college material and that they are missing out on oh-so wonderful traditional schooling and all that mess.

Homeschooled kids aren't prepared for college?
..But their graduating more by almost ten percent and retaining a higher gpa which will make them more desirable in their giving field over their traditionally schooled, supposedly more educated and 'well-rounded' peers.

But kids wont learn the way they would in schools?
Yet they excel over their public-schooling peers by over 30% in national average scores.
 
''... homeschooled children learn better than those in traditional schools. Why? Because their learning style, their interest, their goals are put at the heart of their education through curriculum, schedule, and experiences. Homeschooling means your child’s experience isn’t about what is best for all; it’s about what is best for them. And we know that works! Traditional schools are forced to target the widest possible range of learning abilities and styles which can result in a less-than-effective educational experience for many children. At Bridgeway, your child’s education is customized to their unique learning and testing style and matches your specific goals and teaching style as well. This kind of one-on-one attention is what makes homeschooling with Bridgeway so effective." - more info at: -homeschoolacademy.com
Their public-schooled peers however are given a curriculum that is tailored for training them the way most schools want them to. Not in a way that helps to develop their God-given talents and interests. If I had a dollar for the amount of times someone would disrupt a lesson because they were i.e. drawing, talking about sports, fashion, music, technology etc.,. Things that are actually interesting to them..

Homeschool kids can't socialize well?
There is so much kids can do in their own community. Community service, sports, doing some chores and interact more with neighbors, online communities, cultural/art events, make money for themselves and etc., So many things to do and places to explore. (With parent's permission of course.) A whole lot  more liberating than being cooped up in a room all day long!

I'm not qualified to teach my kid?


There are so many resources today that can help engage productivity, learning and leadership skills.

Homeschooling families are extremely religious!

Yes some are religious but most choose homeschool due to dissatisfaction from the system.
