Advantages And Disadvantages of Homeschooling.

Nowadays parents are choosing different ways of teaching. Among them homeschooling is on top.
What is Homeschooling?. Homeschooling is a kind of studies which takes place inside a house through projects and extra-curricular activities.

People don't like sending their kids to schools as their kids complain about their teacher being harsh to them. Teachers lose their temper and hit children but now hitting kids is banned. Teachers are fired from their posts just because they hit some kids. Parents are depending upon homeschooling , so that they can get to know about the kid's doubt and problems . Thing is that parents can spend more time with their kids also. One more advantage of homeschooling is that the parents can concentrate on one or two children whereas in a class a teacher is taking care of all children. Parents are also enthusiastic in helping their kids in their doubts. One more thing I like about homeschooling is that the studies are done through projects and practicals.

As you know every good thing has a disadvantage so as this.

As you know that in a class there are at least 10-20 kids. Some or all of them are friends with each other . But in homeschooling there in no one to talk or no one new. The kid does not make any new friend and that means his or her communicating skills wont improve. One more disadvantage of homeschooling is that - it is done for classes of L-kg ,U-kg ,1 ,2 and 3. After this the kid has to join school for further more studies and will have problems in communicating and to follow the pattern of studies.

So I think that homeschooling is only good for smaller classes like L-KG and U-KG only. After that you have to put your kid into a school to develop complicated and new things.
