Home schooling
There is no hard and fast definition for the home schooling. It is basically a term used when a child get education outside of the mainstream of the schooling systems. And as per me I prefer home schooling because it keep the kids connected to the parents and parents can educate themselves as per their wish.
Who can home school?
Any child can be home schooled by his /her parents, Guardian or tutor. As per the schooling system every 5 years old child should start receiving a quality education.
How to homeschool?
There are no hard and fast rules for homeschooling. Its up to you and your kids that what type of environment and curriculum as well as the activities you want to perform. You can give your child from highly friendly to highly "SCHOOLY" environment for studies. So you only need a curriculum, some fun activities and stationary. And you are ready to go! And obviously some courage too.... As you are going to educate your own child....
