    The Abcs Of Homeschooling Analysis

    I believe the focus in Susan Garland’s paper “The ABCs of Homeschooling,” is directed more to the pro side, leading you to believe that you get more out of homeschooling than regular school. She argues that the popularity of homeschooling has grown along with the availability of online material to accommodate those looking to get an education outside of the classroom. Garland argues that homeschooling has its con sides such as: More likely to get into trouble due to less monitoring, eventually get on each other’s nerves, become socially inexperienced, and the need for proof with any and all of your studies. However, even with all the cons homeschooling presents Garland has shown how it is effective and a great benefit for those who may need…

    Spanish English Colonies Research Paper

    The French, Spanish, and English all tried to colonize the Western Hemisphere. The French colonization in America started in the 16th century, and continued through centuries as France created an empire in the Western Hemisphere. They founded most colonies in the east of the U.S.A, and many Caribbean islands. The English were one of the most important colonizers of the Americas, and had a rivalry with the Spanish. The English began colonizing in the late 16th century and came out on top when all their colonies were built through America. The Spanish conquered most of the Western Hemisphere, and their colonization attempts were started by the Spanish conquistadors. It all started with Christopher…

    Pros Of Homeschooling Cons

    Today’s parents have many options for their children’s education. The pros and cons of homeschooling add up in so many directions. In my research, one of the biggest questions was can homeschooling curriculum match up with examinations and accreditation of public or private schools? The issue is can a parent be qualified enough to train their children on their own without being a professional teacher. Children deserve the best schooling possible because school prepares children for their in life and education is needed to succeed in the life of the world of work. The stress for parents could end up harming their children more because they have to prepare lessons for every subject and if the child starts to struggle, they could end up putting…

    Homeschooling is a method of teaching that has grown within the past decade. It has been reported, “In 1999 the percentage of school-age children who were being homeschooled increased from 1.7 percent to 2.9 percent in 2007” (National Center for Education Statistics).

Some of the benefits of being homeschooled are, one-on-one instruction, setting your own schedule, healthier food choices, safety, good morals, freedom of religion, and a lower risk of peer pressure.…

    Tricia Smith Vaughan’s “Not Homeschooling? What’s Your Excuse?” a Critical Response

    Should public, or government, schooling be avoided? In the essay No Home-schooling Vaughn Argues that Homeschooling is the best schooling for children and that government schooling should be avoided. Parents put forth the excuse that they are not smart enough to teach their children. Parents believe that government schooling teaches their children both academics and socialism. “The government schools are not teaching your child Judeo-Christian values; they are going to teach him or her how to survive in a group…” Public schooling in the United States is set up to dumb children down. Homeschooling provides one on one attention to a child, and so they do not have to fight for attention from a teacher in governmental schooling. Public schooling is being used as propaganda changing the way your child may think whereas homeschooling provides your child the opportunity for a parent to teach the values of true freedom and individuality. Children need to be tested for their values instead of their knowledge and this simply cannot be done in government schooling.…

    The Benefits Of Homeschooling

    Homeschooling is beneficial to learning disabled students and gifted students. In terms of students with learning disability, public schools have always been depressing for them. They have to hide their disabilities from their classmates; they worry about being noticed by teachers. This explains why “their drop-out rate is high (38 percent versus 25 percent for nondisabled youth). Only 28 percent attempt postsecondary education (versus 56 percent for nondisabled youth), and most do not have the study skills, reading and math skills, or academic coping skills. . .” (Ensign). Whereas, homeschooling parents can create a learning environment which is more efficient than public school teachers: “homeschooling parents of a child with learning disabilities are more likely to go at the child's speed, provide one-on-one tutoring, and expect their child to blossom, with the result that the child does well…

    The Importance Of Homeschooling

    Homeschooling has historically been the primary method for educating the average citizen. Before Western civilization began to emphasize the need for education of the general populace, children were most often taught by their parents, grandparents, or relatives with useful knowledge. In fact, the modern idea of formal education was usually reserved for the elite members of society who could pay the hefty price for a private tutor. Now, quality education is readily available to nearly every member of Western society. However, some parents have turned back to the practice of educating their children out of the comfort of their own home. This practice is known as “homeschooling.”…
