Whenever we want to learn something new, we simply click on Google or some other search engine, that very moment we are following an aspect of home schooling called the self motivated learning.

Since home schools appreciate student’s interest, they produce more dynamic students. 

Every home school is different because every family, child and his requirements are unique.

While starting to homeschool, parents should keep in mind that there are no set rules to design home schools and that is their beauty.

Every home school is based on the self motivated interest of their child and his requirements. 

Parents should keep in mind that their home schools should not be based exactly on the curriculum of institutional schools.

They can design there own curriculum, which is the strength of home schools. 

Parents who compare their home schools with public/private schools should realize that if their child was unhappy doing something in school, how are they helping him by making him do the same thing at home.

Enjoy the Freedom with Care

People who are starting to homeschool experience a kind of freedom from the age old educational system.

The first thing they need to do is slow down and handle their excitement.

They should note down the requirements of home schooling. Two very important requirements are workplace and time consistency. 

They should make sure that they have the required space to start their home school, without which, children would never feel the need to be decent and serious in homeschool.

Secondly, they should make sure that they have a fixed time frame for school hours, and no interference should be entertained during that time period. 

Nothing should be able to push school hours, or else the seriousness of school hours is not even respected by the students.

Since regularity, efficiency, consistency are the keys to success in any work, home schooling is not any different.
