FAQ
What is homeschooling exactly?
Homeschooling is a method of education where children learn at home from their parents. It can also be called homeschooling, self-education and private education.
Families who wish to homeschool their children are well served by this option. This method allows them to receive a quality education without leaving the comfort of their own home.
Children are educated by their parents from the time they are born until they reach high school. They choose the subjects they wish to study, and how long each subject should be studied. Every subject is taught by the student in his/her own time.
The parents decide when to teach their children. Many schools recommend that children attend classes from age four until twelve years old. Some families wait until their children reach kindergarten to start teaching them.
Parents may use any number of resources to guide them through the curriculum. You can learn valuable lessons from books, videos, websites and magazines.
Many families find homeschooling fits well into their busy lives. The parents can spend more time together than traditional public school teachers.
How can I get scholarships?
Scholarships are grants to help with college expenses. There are many types to choose from. These are:
-
Federal Grants
-
State Grants
-
Student Loans
-
Work Study Programs
-
Financial Aid
Federal grants come directly to the U.S. Federal grants usually require applicants to meet specific requirements. For example, you must demonstrate financial need.
Individual states can offer grants to state governments. Some states offer these funds based on financial need; others award money for specific reasons.
Banks and other lending institutions issue student loans. Students are often able to borrow money for expenses such as tuition or living expenses.
Employers can use work-study programmes to attract qualified students. Employers must pay their employees at least the minimum wage.
Financial aid is available to help low-income families pay for college. It covers all or most of the tuition costs.
How much time should I devote to college preparation?
The amount of time spent preparing for college depends on how much you plan to devote to your studies. It is a good idea to start college preparation courses immediately if your goal is to attend college as soon after you graduate high school. However, if you have plans to wait several years before starting college planning, then you don't necessarily need to do so until later.
It is important to discuss your plans and ideas with your parents, teachers, and other family members. They may suggest certain courses of study. Be sure to keep track of the courses you've taken and the grades you received. This will enable you to plan for next year.
When choosing a major, what factors should I consider?
First, you should decide if you want to go into a career straight away or go to college. You should then make a list outlining your talents and interests. It could be reading, listening, watching movies, talking with people, doing chores around the house, and other interests. Your talents could include singing, writing, painting, sewing, crafting, cooking, baking, cooking, woodworking and gardening. Once you've identified your interests and talents you can use them to guide you when choosing a major.
Fine arts or art history might interest you if your dream is to be an artist. Biology is a great option if you love animals. Pre-medicine, medical technology and medicine are options for those who want to be doctors. If you'd like a career that involves computers, you might check out computer science or computer networking. There are many options. Be clear about your goals.
How do I select my major?
Students choose their majors according to their interests. Students may choose to major in the subject they are most passionate about because it is easier than learning something else. Others are interested in a career where there are few jobs. Others choose a major to make money while they study. Whatever your reason, you should think about what type of job you would like to have after graduation.
There are many options for information on different areas of study. You can talk to family members or friends about your experiences in these areas. To find out if there are jobs available, you can read newspapers and magazines. Talk to a guidance counselor at high school about possible career paths. Visit your community center or library to find out more about Career Services. Get books on different topics at your local library. To search for websites that relate to specific careers, use the Internet.
