Most recently, I read data from a National Center for Education Statistics study of home and family education. It turns out that in each country about 5-10% of the total number of children attend this type of education. For example, in Russia every year there are up to 100 thousand children who receive home education. The numbers surprised me and even shocked me a little!

Why do parents prefer this form of education?

What are the disadvantages and advantages compared to public education?

What is the difference between home and family education?

I will try to fully answer these and many other questions, providing parents with maximum information for reflection.

Why do parents not want to send their child to a public school?

There can be quite a few reasons:

• some mothers and fathers believe that the school does not provide enough quality and in-depth education
• there are a number of parents who believe that the workload at school is quite serious and has a bad effect on the physical and psychological state of the child
• intimidation, initiation into bad habits: smoking, drugs, alcohol, as well as division into a social level by peers
• the desire of parents to establish their own curriculum.
• classes are overcrowded, so the teacher is not able to give each student the appropriate attention
• parents wanted and want to spend as much time as possible with their child
• the family lives quite far from the school, and getting to it is very problematic.
• parents had a bad school experience.

Perhaps there are dozens of other reasons, but I have highlighted the main ones that are often encountered.

Why do children not want to go to school?

Now let's answer the question of worried parents: "Why does the son or daughter not want to go to school?" You understand that children are different and there can be quite a lot of reasons. I will bring to your attention the most relevant, which psychologists have identified:

• in the schools of our country, due attention is not paid to each student, there is no individual approach depending on his mental and physical abilities. As a rule, the general education system is designed for the average student. Therefore, in practice, it has been observed that children with high intellectual abilities do not develop their gift, they are sad, lazy and descend to the level of an average schoolchild. But a child with weak mental abilities does not feel comfortable, he has complexes when he is called to the board, he is afraid of ridicule, answering to the whole class. Therefore, the parents of both children understand the needs of their child and transfer them to home or family education. Thus, geeks develop their abilities and do not get bored from a lack of information, while the weak ones study according to a simplified program and do not build up inferiority complexes in themselves.
• the attitude of the child to school in most cases depends on the first teacher. Agree that not everyone is lucky with the first teacher! For example, my daughter is very lucky. My baby went to school with pleasure, absorbed every word that Lydia Alexandrovna said. And not only she! The director, parents and children were delighted with her teaching method, her ability to present information in an interesting, professional and intelligible way. It was also important that she was patient, fair, attentive to each child, never raised her voice and did not single out anyone, writing down as favorites. That is why the whole class, being in the 8th grade, has remained in full force, has a fairly high academic score and now confirms its knowledge in all subjects with different teachers. But I don’t even want to remember the first despotic teacher! Although I studied well, I was afraid to go to school and did not want to. Her cry and constant dissatisfaction with all the children stood in my ears! I will not judge, but just say that my class breathed a sigh of relief when, for family reasons, she moved to another city.
• complex curriculum. Many parents and teachers, with horror, understand: what an unbearable burden falls on the shoulders of students! When attending school, he sits out for 5-8 intense lessons, getting acquainted with the topic of a particular subject, and then, when he comes home, he thoroughly studies the material and does a huge amount of homework. The child is emotionally and physically tired, cannot withstand such loads, gets sick and refuses to go to school. Seeing the condition of the child, some parents decide to switch to home or family education.
• disabled child. Unfortunately, there are children who cannot attend school for health reasons. And there are dozens or even hundreds of thousands of such children in each country. For them, a special program of home schooling and obtaining a certificate of secondary education is provided.

What are the types of homeschooling?

Having dealt with the reasons for studying at home, let's talk about: what it can be, consider its priorities and disadvantages.

There are six forms of home education:

1. Unschooling, which in translation from English means "without a school." Believe it or not, this is a complete rejection not only of the school, but of the school curriculum as a whole. It is not difficult to guess that unschooling is a very risky decision of parents in relation to the future of the baby. Confident in their pedagogical and mental abilities, parents believe that they themselves will be able to teach the child everything necessary, in a peculiar form, master all the sciences that he will need in life and when entering a higher educational institution. Basically, this turns out to be a fatal error! That is why unschooling is banned in many countries, including Russia and Ukraine.
2. Home schooling- this is a close relationship with the school curriculum and teachers. For this form of education, a medical certificate is issued, indicating forced home schooling. As a result, school teachers conduct individual lessons with the child at home, without deviating from the secondary education program: with writing independent, test papers and passing exams.
3. Homeschooling with Partial School Attendance. This type of training is provided only due to medical indications approved by a special medical commission. These may be children with special needs who are only allowed to attend a few lessons per day.
4. Family Learning significantly differs from the home one in that the lessons are conducted by the parents or relatives themselves, independently choosing the lesson schedule, materials and their volumes. You say that this is unschooling! No, I dare you to object! Being in family education, the kid is assigned to the school, every year he passes certification, takes exams, and passing an independent examination assessment is also a prerequisite. Upon graduation, the child receives the same certificate as the students attending the educational institution.
5. external student issued by agreement with the school administration. With the help of relatives, the child learns the basics of science at home, and then passes tests and exams without coming to school.
6. remote method- this is training by teachers via the Internet through the Skype program or forums. Homework and control robots are performed online. The distance learning method is agreed and approved by the school administration due to the reasonable circumstances of the student.

We evaluate the pros and cons of homeschooling.

Let's dwell on the positive and negative sides of home-based education.

Positive sides:

• children receive education at a convenient time for them and taking into account the wishes
• the fact of violence by teachers and peers is excluded
• no need to follow school rules and absurd rituals.
• there is an opportunity for parents to completely control the child, to engage in his moral, religious and ethical education.
• a great opportunity to live according to your biological clock. This is a great opportunity to get enough sleep, if necessary, stop or cancel classes during illness, etc.
• engage in the study of special sciences or rare languages.
• the risk of acute respiratory infections, acute respiratory viral infections, injuries, infectious diseases is reduced, and problems with posture and visual impairment are practically eliminated.
• there is a constant contact of the child with his parents, as a result, a bad or any other influence on the growing personality is excluded.
• there is a unique opportunity to complete a school course in less than ten years.

Negative sides:

• no experience with teamwork
• the need for constant employment of parents with the education of the child, control over the educational process.
• there is no clear work schedule and strict discipline, which stimulates the speed of completing educational tasks.
• no experience in resolving conflict situations among classmates and high school students
• parents will not be able to professionally and fully teach all school subjects without exception. No matter how talented they are.
• overprotection will lead to selfishness of the child
• the baby will grow up like a houseplant - without worldly experience
• the imposition by parents of their point of view on the child is detrimental and leads to a complete absence of their opinion
• the baby feels that he is not like everyone else and tries on the image of a “white crow”.

Like this! So, dear parents, decide where and how your child should be educated! I wish you to make the right choice!

7 ways to instill in children a love of reading!

Since many readers of the women's site "Beautiful and Successful" are progressive mothers who seek to provide their children with the conditions necessary for versatile development, today's article is devoted to the question of how to transfer to a schoolchild in our country.

If parents have firmly decided that their child will not attend a regular comprehensive school, they need to specifically decide on the type of education outside of it.

Homeschooling: Existing Forms

In general, there are several types of distance learning, the most common of which are:

1. Home education. With this form of organization of education, school teachers work individually with the child at home. The entire educational process is undertaken by the school in which the child is enrolled. Home education was designed specifically for children with disabilities who cannot attend regular school. In the absence of medical indications, it will not be possible to transfer the child to this form of education.
2. Partial home schooling. It is also possible to transfer a child to home schooling with free attendance at school lessons only if there is a medical certificate indicating the special needs of the child.
3. Remote education. Education in a modern Internet school is most convenient for children who live very far from the nearest external school or who are abroad. Students of the online school can communicate with the teacher and among themselves via Skype and on forums. Monitoring the progress of students in this form is also carried out via the Internet, so when studying in it, the need for contact with a full-time school is minimized. The main advantage of distance learning compared to full home schooling is the ability to get advice from professional teachers at any time.
4. External study. This is the name of the family form of education, in which one of the parents teaches children. In order to switch to home schooling, the family needs to find an external school and conclude an agreement with it. Theoretically, there is nothing complicated in the design of this type of training.
5. Unschooling. This freest form of education, completely denying the school and the school curriculum, is banned in almost all countries of the world. However, this system can be used as an addition to school education.

How to transfer to home schooling

The law states that the transfer of a child to an external school can be carried out at any stage of his education and it is carried out on the basis of an application from the parents. If you wish to homeschool your child, please follow the steps below.

• Find a suitable educational institution. At the same time, it should be borne in mind that there are external schools both on the basis of ordinary schools and schools with in-depth study of subjects. External studies will follow the same curriculum as regular school students. External students receive the same certificate as other graduates of this educational institution.
• Write a statement addressed to the director of the educational institution indicating the reason why the parents decided to transfer the child to home schooling. In addition, it is necessary to indicate the chosen form of family education: distance learning, partial home schooling or external study.
• Conclude an appropriate agreement with the school. The contract must contain information about the intermediate certification of the external.
• Take all the necessary textbooks and teaching aids from the school library.

Parents who take documents from a regular school to transfer to an external study based on another educational institution do not need to provide the administration with any certificates. It is enough to inform the director about the new place of education of the child orally.

When transferring a child to home schooling, parents should remember that they take on all the responsibilities for preparing him for tests, tests and exams. However, in case of any problems, they can contact the teachers of the school, who are obliged to provide them with methodological assistance. If the parents fail to ensure that the child learns the school curriculum, the school will have the right to terminate the concluded agreement, and the student will return to the classroom.

How to arrange homeschooling

In order for a child to be able to comprehend all the wisdom of general educational sciences, he must study with one of the adults every day for literally 2-3 hours a day. Therefore, those mothers and fathers who are just thinking about the question of how to organize a child’s education at home should decide who will be the baby’s home teacher.

It doesn't have to be the parents themselves. The role of a teacher can be played by a competent and competent grandmother. Families with a sufficient level of income can invite a tutor to their home.

As for the methods of teaching at home, each family has its own. In our country, there are already parents who have some experience in terms of self-education of their children. They willingly share this experience in various forums.

The site site believes that organizing homeschooling does not require any particularly complex methods and techniques. The main thing is to take into account his inclinations and needs when exercising with a baby, to properly motivate him.

Parents should understand that children are by nature very inquisitive. They listen with pleasure to all the stories of adults and, as a rule, easily remember everything. This is what needs to be used. Cognition can take place imperceptibly for the baby himself, in the form of an ordinary conversation. You can, for example, during a walk in the park, answer the questions of a little why-do-it-yourself as detailed as possible, pushing him to pay attention to certain points.

It is very important that an adult is well prepared for any of these walks or excursions. The erudition of the parent who will educate the child is one of the main requirements for organizing individual learning at home.

But an even more significant factor in successful family education is the choice of the style of communication with the child and the methods of education.

They should be based on respect for the personality of the little person, love for him and unconditional faith in his talent and success. Even if he cannot learn to read fluently or learn the multiplication table for a long time, you should not bully him with long studies, force him to reread the same sentence twice or memorize what he has not yet been able to understand. After all, the main point of the transition to home schooling is precisely to protect the delicate psyche of the child from the negative impact of the imperfect educational system in schools.

Children receive primary, basic general and complete secondary education at school. But according to the law “On Education in the Russian Federation”, parents have the right to transfer their child to home schooling. We'll tell you how to do it.

Part 1, paragraph 2, Art. 17 of the Law "On Education in the Russian Federation" lists the grounds for transferring a child to home schooling: family circumstances; medical indications (health problems do not allow the child to study within the walls of the school).

Switching to home schooling for family reasons

The law does not specify what kind of “family circumstances” are due to which parents transfer their child to home schooling. It's just the decision of the parents. To teach a child at home, you need to follow a few steps.

Step 1. We notify the regional educational authorities (Ministry/Department/Department) that you are transferring your child to family education. Parents are obliged to do this in accordance with Art. 63 part 5 of the new Federal Law "On Education in the Russian Federation". The application shall be submitted in writing in two copies. The law allows you to submit a notice in person or by mail.

If you notify in person, the institution will stamp and date the document on the second copy. The application is advisory in nature. You simply inform the relevant authority of your choice. So that the regulatory authorities do not decide that the child is skipping school. The education authority can only take note of your decision. Officials do not have the right to prohibit, not allow or disapprove of the choice.

Step 2. Let's go to school.

At school, parents write a statement that they are transferring the child to home schooling and asking to be expelled from school. The application is written in free form. Within a week, the school is required to hand over the student's personal file and medical card.

The principal of the school does not have the right to refuse to expel a child from school for home schooling. If the school refuses to expel, we demand a written explanation from the director and complain about it to the educational authorities.

After the child has been expelled from school, the parents draw up an individual educational plan. From that moment on, the responsibility for the education of the child lies with the parents.

By the way, earlier (until 2012, when the current law “On Education” was adopted), parents signed an agreement with the school. It prescribed the forms and terms of certification, the timing of practical and laboratory work. The student was invited to study, practical and other classes according to the school schedule. Now there is no need to sign a contract. Those parents who were dissatisfied with the school's requirement to attend tests or other classes at school breathed a sigh of relief.

"Semeynik" acquires the status of "external" - he goes to school only for intermediate and final assessments. Minus - those who regularly came to school for free consultations can forget about it. What subjects to study - the school decides, and how to teach them - the parents decide. The school does not interfere in this process and does not check. Parents themselves determine the methods of teaching, the time allotted for each topic, the amount of material that can be given outside the program, and much more.

Textbooks do not have to be bought - the school should give out free ones to the "family man".

The child also enjoys other rights of an ordinary student: he can participate in olympiads and competitions, use the school library, etc. Until the 9th grade, the parent has the right not to report to the school at all about what and how the child is teaching.

The first mandatory exam is the GIA in the 9th grade. The next one is the USE in the 11th. The list of schools where the child will take these exams (mandatory attestation) can be requested from the Department of Education.

From the list of schools, parents choose the one where the child will take exams - and write an application addressed to the director. Like the notice, the application must be handed over to the school office against receipt on the second copy or sent by mail in a valuable first class letter with a return receipt and a description of the attachment.

After that, the school issues an administrative act, which will indicate the admission of a person to an educational institution for certification. This assessment is free of charge. At the request of the child and the parent, exams (intermediate certification) can be taken once a year.

Switching to homeschooling for medical reasons

To study at home for medical reasons, the law allows children to:

- with chronic diseases;

- with a protracted illness;

- who are treated on an outpatient basis for a long time.

Recommendations to switch to home schooling are given by the attending physician. Sometimes parents make this decision on their own. The school will release the child to study at home for the duration of the illness if there is a certificate issued through the Control and Expert Commission (CEC). It is issued in a regular clinic to which the child is attached.

Be sure to check! The certificate must be signed by the doctor who issued the document; a doctor observing a child; head of the children's clinic; chief physician of the children's clinic. The document is stamped with the round seal of the polyclinic.

After the parents received a certificate in their hands, you need to go to school. A free-form application is written to the principal of the school with a request to transfer the student to home schooling. A certificate is attached to the application.

The maximum period of study at home is one year (training), the minimum is a month (as a rule, for injuries and operations).

The article did not disclose the most important thing: in the first case, you yourself teach the child on your own, and in the second, the teacher is provided by the school at your own expense. According to medical testimony, it turned out to be not so easy to transfer a child! There is a list of 60 diagnoses with which they transfer, with the rest, they pass. Even if your child is sick, no one cares. Let him go and earn money with each illness, the diagnosis is more difficult for himself. (This is very sad, you have to miss a lot due to protracted illnesses and then make up for it at your own expense. Everything is for people, as always.

Thank you for the information, very useful, because. we'll probably have to pick up the grandson of a first grader from school. Studying at school №14, class with the experimental program "Harmony". The child reads fluently, retells, counts rather quickly examples of the 2nd grade of the "Planet of Knowledge" program. But the program "Harmony" with squares and zeros introduces him into a stupor. The grandson categorically does not want to go to school, although he studied with great pleasure before this program. For two months of attending school, he could not bear even a grain of knowledge. Our family is horrified. We wonder why they were allowed to experiment on our children without the consent of their parents and cripple the psyche of young children.

Finally, people can break away from totalitarianism. Stop making our children a statistical mass. They have driven people to a dead end with these new standards of education. Put blinders on your eyes and think it will work. NO! Gentlemen. Our children also have the right to a free life, and not just your Majors. Let's see who will grow out of whom. THANK YOU to Fair RUSSIA.! With all my heart, I wish them good luck. I would like to tell us good luck, but I unfortunately not a member of this party.

First you need to understand the terminology and understand. For example, home and family education are different things. Here we will talk about family to answer the main questions that parents have when they realize that a regular school is not suitable for their children.

1. Is it possible to transfer a child to family education at his own request?

That's the only way it's done. The younger the child, the more the parent's own desire is in this, the older - the more it is his choice.

Speaking specifically, according to Article 17 of the current Law “On Education”, there are several ways of learning: full-time at school (i.e., like most children), not at school (family education), at school full-time by correspondence or by correspondence (as serious child athletes, for example). To choose the form of education, no one's permissions and approvals are needed, only a balanced and conscious decision of the family.

Article 17. Forms of education and forms of education

1. In the Russian Federation, education can be obtained: 1) in organizations carrying out educational activities; 2) outside organizations engaged in educational activities (in the form of family education and self-education).
2. Education in organizations engaged in educational activities, taking into account the needs, capabilities of the individual and depending on the volume of compulsory classes of a teacher with students, is carried out in full-time, part-time or part-time form.
3. Education in the form of family education and self-education is carried out with the right to subsequently pass, in accordance with Part 3 of Article 34 of this Federal Law, intermediate and state final certification in organizations engaged in educational activities.
4. A combination of various forms of education and forms of education is allowed.

2. In what cases is it appropriate?

Each family comes to a decision in its own way. The general answer, perhaps, sounds like this: when the goals of the family and the school are so divergent that it is no longer possible to interact peacefully. It is difficult to give examples, because there will always be a person who finds them unconvincing - they say, this is not a reason to leave school, you can be patient.

I will say in general terms: some want to spend more time with their families, others need to be more flexible in building their educational program outside of school (figure skating in the morning, theater studio in the afternoon, Spanish courses in the evening), and others have realized that the quality of education in a public school is nowhere is not good, and if you try it yourself, it will not be worse.

3. Who to contact when the decision is ripe?

According to paragraph 5 of Article 63 of the Law "On Education" on the transition of a child to a family form of education, it is necessary to inform either the city education department or the local government of the municipal district or city district at the place of residence. Who exactly to inform depends on the size of your locality. First you need to call the education authority, and they will direct you there.

5. Local self-government bodies of municipal districts and city districts keep records of children who have the right to receive general education at each level and live in the territories of the respective municipalities, and the forms of education determined by the parents (legal representatives) of children.
When parents (legal representatives) of children choose a form of general education in the form of family education, parents (legal representatives) inform the local self-government body of the municipal district or city district in whose territories they live about this choice.

4. Can transfer to homeschooling be denied?

The question is fundamentally wrong. Parents do not ask permission, they inform local authorities of their decision. Therefore, they cannot be allowed.

5. Does the child remain "attached" to a particular school?

Teachers are obliged to come to those children who are constantly studying at the school where these teachers work - if for some reason (for example, due to illness) the children cannot attend classes. If the parents have chosen family education, teachers do not have to do anything to the family and will not come.

The question of "attachment" arises only in connection with the passage of certification. To do this, you really need to come to the director in advance, get to know each other and tell about your plans to be certified at this school. On the eve of the exams, the director, by his order, will enroll the child in school for the period of passing the intermediate certification, and after passing, he will expel.

You can not attach a child until the moment of certification, today it is a GIA after grade 9. But still, most parents organize exams earlier, for example, after each year of study or after 4th grade. But not everyone applies for this to the nearest schools. Among "families" online contacts with schools are very popular. There are schools on the Internet that can accept your child's exams for a fee.

6. At what age can you switch to homeschooling?

Theoretically, in any case, you need to understand that the solution is not related to age, but to those tasks of development and organization of the child's life that become too difficult to solve while attending school.

There is also a risk that, having "lived" for several years at school, the child will not be able to understand why and how one can live without school.

7. Do I need to write tests?

Be sure to only need those works that you have discussed with your certification center. And it doesn't matter what it is, the nearest school or an external office in Novosibirsk. However, it is certainly useful to write checklists for self-examination. Although not necessary.

8. Do I need to report on the qualifications of hired teachers?

The moment of parental responsibility will arise during the evaluation period. If the child passes the certification at grades “3” and above, everything is fine, and no one cares how exactly you achieved this.

9. How to take the exam?

The unified state exam is a form of passing the state final certification (GIA). As with any assessment, the child needs to select subjects in advance and write an application at the nearest school.

If you still have questions, here are some more Newtonew materials on alternative education:,.

Home schooling (homeschooling, from English homeschooling - homeschooling) is popular in the USA and Canada, has many years of practice there. In Russia, home schooling, although it is enshrined in law, still causes skepticism on the part of educational institutions. And parents have to be literally pioneers.Anna Devyatka, a teacher-psychologist and mother of a child studying at home, talks about the pros, cons and nuances of home schooling.

What for?

To begin with, it is important for every parent who is interested in homeschooling to clearly understand their motives - what tasks in the family they want to solve with the help of homeschooling. Someone wants to give their child a better education than at school, reducing the hours of general education subjects, such as music and art, and increasing the hours of specialized subjects, such as physics, history, biology. For some parents, the issue of maintaining the health of the child is acute. And by teaching it at home, they hope to avoid overload. Someone with the help of family education combines the beginning of a child's sports career and education.

What are the types of homeschooling?

Not all homeschoolers decide to teach a child at home. Currently, you can choose between a public or private school that will help you stick to your subject curriculum.
There is a part-time type of training when a child goes to school all day once or twice a week, and the rest of the time he studies at home. In one or two days, children learn new material and work it out with their parents at home. At the same time, the learning process is clearly monitored by both parents and teachers.

You can also transfer the child in a regular school to correspondence education. In this case, the order of study, the provision of homework and verification of what has been done, consultations with teachers - all these nuances are discussed with the administration of the selected educational institution, and may vary in different schools.

Full-time education in family schools suitable for those parents who are interested in more frequent school attendance by children. Children go to school 3-4 times a week. Such schools allow education in small classes with a carefully balanced teaching load.

Right side


Homeschooling is regulated by law. The Law "On Education" of July 10, 1992 gave parents the right to choose the form of education - to teach the child at school or in the family. The Federal Law of the Russian Federation of December 29, 2012 N 273-FZ "On Education in the Russian Federation" also confirmed this right.

What makes homeschooling attractive?

Individual approach. Family education allows you to build a schedule and a learning system that is right for your child. It also allows you to approach the learning process creatively, through the game, which is especially important in elementary school.

You can study from anywhere in the world. Since the main participants in the educational process are parents and a child, this allows you to study from any country and combine travel, life in other countries with education in Russia.

You can choose the environment of the child. Children at home schooling make friends "by interests." And if we talk about the “homeschooling” company, it is prestigious among them to know a lot and compete with each other on the topic “who knows more” and “who will tell more interesting things”. For a child, such an environment is an additional motivation to learn. However, this plus can be easily attributed to the minuses - after all, children can be allowed to choose their own environment, and not select only “good boys and girls”.

You will have a circle of like-minded people. When you start homeschooling a child, you will meet the same interested in learning parents who are ready to communicate, make friends with families and help each other.

The child learns to build relationships with different people and respect the dissimilarity of people. With teachers, friends, parents of friends - homeschoolers better understand that all people are different, everyone has their own point of view, they better navigate the new rules and communicate with new people and sincerely do not understand how it is to be "like everyone else."

What is unattractive about homeschooling

The child may become bored and lonely.. No matter how well the child’s life schedule is organized, there are times when the company does not interfere - for example, when the parents are busy with work, and the child is sad in the next room. Homeschooling parents will support us - so that the child does not get bored, you can take care of additional meetings with friends, for example, invite someone to visit.

The danger of gadgets. If the child is left at home alone, it is important to put time limits on computers, tablets and phones. We work to prevent computer addiction.

Alone at home. It is important to think about how long the child can stay at home alone, and whether one of the relatives can help and look after him.

Payment for educational services. Usually, in the process of home education, parents attract tutors, and their work costs money. Also, attachment to the school can be both paid and free. If you do not want to leave your child alone, you will have to pay for babysitting services.

What parents need to be prepared for

In general, when choosing a family education, parents should clearly understand their motivation. Based on it, it is important to set goals for the year, and for all the time when the child will study in the family. In addition to the goals, it is important to identify the criteria for monitoring the quality of education - whether it will be tasks done for the school, or a teacher's assessment, or the Unified State Examination.

Parents should pay attention to the education of the self-motivation of the child. This is important in any education, but since the teacher additionally controls the child at school, and at home the child can sometimes do homework by himself, while the mother is nearby working on the computer, it is important that the child wants to do the homework qualitatively and independently. Self-motivation and self-control is what parents can teach. There is no need to rush in this matter, you should spend at least six months on cultivating these qualities and continue to maintain these qualities.

Responsibility for learning outcomes is divided into several parts. The first and main part of the responsibility lies with the parents - on how they organize the learning process, whether they invite tutors in specialized subjects, whether they explain to the child the importance of classes and a good education. In a word, will parents be able to create external motivation in a child.
The responsibility of the child is that he is sincerely interested in learning and tries to complete tasks on time and, if possible, on his own.

Be prepared that at home education the child will be around you more often, so that your work schedule, sports, meetings with friends will be in constant dependence on the child’s life schedule. Find out for yourself if you are ready for this.

And the process of homeschooling itself requires the close attention of parents.. For example, a child can do homework intensively all week, and on Saturday it turns out that he did only English, and for six months in advance. And on Saturday I came to my parents for help with mathematics. That is, parents will have to constantly keep their finger on the pulse, to play the role of head teacher in a sense.

It is important to choose the pace of studying subjects that is adequate for the child and his age. This way you avoid overload and keep your child interested in learning. And if the child himself wants to read something additionally, study it more deeply, he always has the opportunity to do it on his own or ask his parents for help.
