Homeschooling – A Better Way to Learn?

Increasing numbers of parents in the US are choosing to teach their kids at home. In fact, the

US Department of Education estimated that, in 1999, around 850,000 children were being home-

schooled. Some educational experts say the real figure is about double this estimate, and the ranks of

homeschooled children appear to be growing at a rate of about 11% annually.

At one time, there was a stigma¹ associated with homeschooling; it was traditionally used for

children who could not attend school because of behavioral or learning difficulties. Today, however,

more parents are taking on the responsibility of educating their children at home due to dissatisfaction

with the educational system. Many parents are unhappy about class size, as well as problems inside the

classroom. Teacher shortages and lack of funding mean that, in many schools, one teacher is

responsible for thirty or forty pupils. The result is often that children are deprived of the attention they

need. Escalating classroom violence has also motivated some parents to remove their children from

school.

Advocates of homeschooling believe that children learn better when they are in a secure, loving

environment. Many psychologists see the home as the most natural learning environment, and

originally the home was the classroom, long before schools were established. Parents who home-

school argue that they can monitor their children's education and give them the attention that is lacking

in a traditional school setting. Students can also pick and choose what to study and when to study, thus

enabling them to learn at their own pace².

In contrast, critics of homeschooling say that children who are not in the classroom miss out on

learning important social skills because they have little interaction with their peers. Several studies,

though, have shown that the home-educated children appear to do just as well in terms of social and

emotional development as other students, having spent more time in the comfort and security of their

home, with guidance from parents who care about their welfare. In spite of this, many critics of

homeschooling have raised concerns about the ability of parents to teach their kids effectively. Many

parents who home-school have no teacher training background and are not competent educators of all

the subjects taught in schools. In terms of academic achievement, however, home schooled children do

just as well as those who have been in the classrooms. Moreover, many home-educated children attend

prestigious universities like Harvard and Stanford along with the conventionally educated students.
