Independent learning is promoted while the teacher/tutor remains on hand to help with concepts the learners are struggling with.
Why Homeschooling?
1. Choice
Homeschooled learners have access to more subjects than those that are typically offered in schools. In a traditional school, FET Learners are typically restricted to choose only a certain number of subjects or subject combinations depending on the resources available. However, this does not apply to Homeschooled learners (depending on your curriculum of choice).
2. Sociability
Pursuing Homeschooling doesn't mean that your child misses out on social activities. In fact Homeschooled children can have more time to engage in several extra-curricular activities and integrate with a variety of peers.
There are Homeschool communities that organise sport and other activities. There are also Homeschool Tutor Centres where learners engage with each other daily, just as in traditional schools.
3. Flexibility
There is a high flexibility aspect of Homeschooling that is well-suited for children who pursue talents at a higher level, such as professional athletes and even entrepreneurs. This allows them to pursue their dreams while getting an education. Learners with Special Educational Needs can also be accommodated according to their needs, which is not the case in traditional schools.
