How to convince parents to let me do online schooling?

How can you convince your very stubborn parents to let you do online schooling?

  • I'm an all honors student, but this year I'm falling a little behind. This year, my teachers don't teach, they tell. But when they teach, in which they never do, they ...show more

  • Answer:

    I am homeschooling this year and I did two years back. The first year I home schooled I was in 6th grade. Because I was homeschooling I got through 6th grade math AND 7th grade math in one year. I also finished 6th grade science 4 months early! Now Im in 8th grade but taking 10th grade classes with SOME 9th grade classes, but no 8th grade (Cuz I did that last year). This year I am aiming to finish 2 years of science, and 3 years of math in one year. Not to mention that I still have plenty of time to do my music (Which is why I want to finish school early in the first place). The reason I went so fast is that in public school, the teachers take an hour just to cover one tiny little sub-topic, that SHOULD take about 20 minutes to learn and master! A great website that is free and covers math, science and history is www.khanacademy.org. He makes everything really easy to understand, has exercises, and explains a whole lesson in 10 minutes! Hes great and you should definitely check it out.

I too am a homeschooler. I'm 15 and doing NCEA level 1 (a year ahead of where I should be). I've been homeschooled for 10 years, and have never been in a public high school or anything of the sort. My brother and sister were also homeschooled, but not for as long as myself. I've found that i've benifited homeschooling really well, and like "Lisa" said, I get things done much faster than a public school, and i'm proud of the fact i'm much more ahead of my peers. I know plenty of homeschooling families, and they too love it, and I don't think they would go back to school. The great thing about homeschooling is that you can do it at your own pace, there is nobody stopping you from getting two years done in 1 or perhaps taking a little longer than you should on one subject. Everything is at your leisure, and you haven't got a teacher breathing down your neck, or peer pressure. Homeschooling is awesome!
