hello, i grew up homeschooled
Oh neat! Did a parent or a tutor provide your instruction?
younger years was my mom but high school, a tutor
Best of both worlds! A lot of people seem to believe that homeschoolers don't learn as much as their public school peers, but they actually score at or above average on standardized tests!
i agree plus more able of self teaching too
are about 1.7 million homeschooled students in the United States.
On average, homeschoolers score at or above the national average on standardized tests. Homeschool students have been accepted into many Ivy League universities.
History.
For most of history and in different cultures, the education of children at home by family members was a common practice. Enlisting professional tutors was an option available only to the wealthy. Homeschooling declined in the 19th and 20th centuries with the enactment of compulsory attendance laws. However, it continued to be practiced
colleges and universities have an official policy for homeschool admissions and 95% have received applications from homeschoolers for admission. Documents that may be required for admission vary, but may include ACT/SAT scores, essays, high school transcript, letters of recommendation, SAT 2 scores, personal interviews, portfolio, and a GED. 78% of admissions officers expect homeschooled students to do as well or better than traditional high school graduates at college. Students coming from a homeschool graduated from college at a higher rate than their peers¬—66.7 percent compared
