This resulted in the government building more and more schools to accommodate more students. Then compulsory education was established in order to make more students go to the new schools to get their education. This development brought home education to slowly fade away. But all is not lost. At present, home schooling has brought a bit of resurgence in its appeal of providing more personalized education to children. For instance, with a reading program a homeschool teacher or a parent can skip lessons that the child has already mastered like the alphabet and concentrate on aspects that the child has not yet fully learned. Another advantage that a homeschool reading program provide is the fact that students can learn at their own pace without worrying about being left behind in the class or keeping up with the pace of others. This will allow children to obtain quality instruction. Students of home schooling also benefit from having a very comfortable and familiar environment for a classroom. Home-schooled students no longer have to adapt to new surroundings, which can also sometimes affect a child's ability to learn. This system can also provide a way for parents to be closer with their children and can also help parents have a more active role in educating their children in the manner that they want. Remember that you can no more rely on other people to teach you child. With the homeschool program, you will have to do all the dirty work. You will be the one who will to do all the lectures and all the checking of worksheets. You will also have to create your own curriculum, a set of lessons that you feel will be appropriate for your child. This is why most homeschooling parent do not just make their homes their children s classrooms but also everywhere they feel their children can learn. For instance, in teaching a lesson on plants and animals, they can conduct the lessons inside a Science museum or a zoo. With a homeschooling program, there are actually more field trips and more practical lessons than traditional classroom lecture. You are the best and first hand access to the personality of your child; knowing his IQ (Intelligent Quotient) and EQ (Emotional Quotient), what subjects are his inclinations. You won't be wasting much time to tackle a task, imposing the teaching and learning process on subjects not of his interests.
