| When you learn reading, math, and other subjects taught in school from your parents or tutors (家庭教师) who come to your house, it's called homeschooling. A kid may be the only one, or he or she may be taught with brothers, sisters, or kids from the neighborhood. Parents choose to homeschool their children for many different reasons. 1 But more often, kids are homeschooled because their parents feel they can give their child a better education than the local school can. 2 If you don't like school, homeschooling might seem like the perfect solution. But it's better for everyone if homeschooling isn't chosen just as an escape from school or problems there, such as bullying. 3 Your school counselor (顾问) and other school officials, such as the principal, often can help. 4 It's true that kids must be educated, but it's legal to be schooled at home in the US. In fact, more than 1 million students do it. These kids can learn just as they do in regular schools, but their parents are in charge of their education. 5 The parents also may have to file paperwork with the state to explain who's teaching the kid and which subjects are being covered. |
