Five Unexpected Benefits of Homeschooling
Five Unexpected Benefits of Homeschooling
- Learning Styles – Curriculum and teaching approaches can be modified for each student.
- Responsibility – Learners typically learn to take responsibility for their learning schedules and develop good study habits.
- Socialization – When kids are homeschooled, they socialize with people from a broader range of ages. They are not in a room with 20-30 other students who are the same age as they are.
- Sibling relationships — Typically, when kids enter a school system, they are off and running in different directions only to return home with homework. Homeschooling gives siblings time to develop their relationships as they go through developmental changes.
- Sleep – Schedules can be adjusted so that learners get the proper amount of sleep. Lack of sleep can be a big problem for kids in the traditional school system.
