This can be the most over-taught and over-stressed subject! Some parents think it must take thousands of hours with buckets of tears, but for homeschoolers, teaching English can be a real joy!

What about SOCIALIZATION?


Homeschoolers learn to interact with EVERYONE, not just people born within 9 months of their birthday! They have more time to develop TRUE friendships with those who share their interests and values, rather than shallow relationships based on proximity and age.

This is my story of how socialization actually improved our chances for the full tuition scholarships that my children received: A little story for the next time you’re asked about socialization.

What about ACCREDITATION?


Did you know there are unaccredited public schools across the country? Yup! True story! That's why colleges treat your school the same way they do an unaccredited public school. One school district webpage in Missouri clearly explains what I have been telling parents for years. Accreditation isn’t the “be-all-end-all.” It’s interesting to read a no-nonsense, the-sky-isn’t-falling response to parental concern about accreditation.

If you want to read the long story of accreditation for your own edification, you can find it here: Homeschool Accreditation - Don't Ask, Don't Tell.
