Your First Year Homeschooling: How to Make it Work | Woostah

So you've decided to home-educate your child. Congratulations! This is one of the biggest and most difficult decisions you'll ever make. Many parents choose to home school their children for a number of reasons, but chances are that you're still a little nervous about making things work. Whether you are going to home educate a kindergartner or your child has already completed a few years of public school, your first year of homeschooling can be a challenge (just like your first year working on your online degree).

To help you with this important challenge, we have put together a list of things for you to keep in mind that will help you make home-schooling a better and more efficient experience for you and your family.

1 – Be Patient and Understand it is a Learning Experience

When you first start homeschooling, make sure you talk with your spouse and your children openly about the experience. Make sure everyone understands that this is a learning experience for the whole family. It will take everyone some time to adjust to the change that homeschooling brings. It may take some time for you to figure out what curriculum works well for your family, as well as to work out a schedule that makes sense for each family member. Remember to be patient with your family as you figure things out together.our First Year Homeschooling: How to Make it Work | Woostah:
