Below are just a few benefits from homeschooling:

• Spend more time with your children.
• Spend more time with your children when they are rested and fresh rather than tired and cranky after school.
• Children can learn subjects not usually taught in their school.
• Allow your children to learn at their own pace.
• Allow children to work at a level that is appropriate to their own developmental stage.  
• Provide long, uninterrupted blocks of time for writing, reading, playing, thinking, or working so that the child is able to engage in sophisticated, complex activities and thought processes.
• Encourage concentration and focus - which are discouraged in crowded classrooms with too many distractions.
• Watch your child develop the ability to pace her/himself.
• Teach your children to help more with household chores and personal responsibility.
• Enjoy more field trips by spending time outdoors, at museums, parks, historical sites.
