He already started nursery when he was three at preschool drop-in center so at this time of pandemic, the school has an option for online and modular. So I chose modular learning. I am just starting last week homeschooling my son with the school provider. Given that one week of time since we started, so far okay naman, but still I am worried when everything will not go smoothly in terms sa learning effectivity and sa magiging behavior ng anak ko, given the idea sa mga nabasa ko in this article.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-757498959777165937.post-9996796459825507512020-02-19T22:23:23.136+08:002020-02-19T22:23:23.136+08:00Thanks for sharing your thoughts, May! 😊Thanks for sharing your thoughts, May! 😊Denisehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04669860244043023150noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-757498959777165937.post-79003079559594133352020-02-19T22:22:09.617+08:002020-02-19T22:22:09.617+08:00Thank you, whoever you are! 😊Thank you, whoever you are! 😊Denisehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04669860244043023150noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-757498959777165937.post-36060551557141329212020-02-19T22:21:19.515+08:002020-02-19T22:21:19.515+08:00In all fairness, kids can actually socialize MORE ...In all fairness, kids can actually socialize MORE with other kinds of people when they are homeschooled.Denisehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04669860244043023150noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-757498959777165937.post-75839568969986959702020-02-19T22:18:24.692+08:002020-02-19T22:18:24.692+08:00To be fair, homeschooling doesn’t limit children’s...To be fair, homeschooling doesn’t limit children’s socialization.

But this quarter i felt that math is getting harder for him & i’m not sure if his school is really teaching him well in that subject. I am also having a hard time tutoring him at home so i realized home schooling will not be for us. I also decided that i will enroll him in a tutorial school for his math subject because i feel that i will not be an effective teacher for him when i shout & fight a lot whenever we study at home.Ness Mamasabulodhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08123481590029530373noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-757498959777165937.post-44330833966855067042020-02-07T08:48:27.166+08:002020-02-07T08:48:27.166+08:00Yes, thank you for sharing.

But he took an exam to Pisay so DepEd and I made an agreement to give us grades if my son passes the Pisay NCE if not balik grade 6 anak ko. Homeschooling is not for us but I prepared him on his elementary and intermediate algebra in case he passes Pisay. Monday to Friday 1 hour only but it seemed eternity to him.

So it's okay to quit the homeschooling part if it means keeping the relationship.<br />We have a totally different experience - been homeschooling for 10 years now - 3 kids - and we love it. Though I do not recommend it to everyone. Different Family, Different Calling.<br />And nope, we don't always talk about educating, haha! We have other friends, our kids are well-socialised with people of different ages and status - and if I may say so, different religious affiliations. I'd be gagging, myself, if it's all I have to talk about. :)<br /><br />Believe me, we're not always patient. In fact, I think it's my kids who are more patient with me than me with them. But it is a calling for our family - and by God's grace, we are able to stick to it for this long. A more seasoned homeschooling mom once advised me when I was just starting out to take homeschooling a year at a time. Seasons change. Perhaps your one homeschooling year was the one year you were called to do it. I'm sure there were so many lessons that you can derive from it - as they say, homeschooling can be God's way to show us our hearts' condition, and by it, we learn to heal and to grow.   may palacpachttp://www.fullyhousewifed.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-757498959777165937.post-26497016843804851562020-02-05T19:12:38.543+08:002020-02-05T19:12:38.543+08:00Thank you for this, and i agree that homeschooling...Thank you for this, and i agree that homeschooling isnt for everyone. I have low emotional quotient so i get pikon easily if my son isnt focused or complaining a lot. Initially, i was interested in homeschooling him. Parang ang ganda kasi ng reviews ng homeschooling so just to test the waters, i tried to tutor him on his school homeworks. It was a disaster. Either i walk out on him or he ended up crying. In the 1 month that i tried, less than 10% yata ung ok ang session namin. So, i totally scrapped the idea na. Kasi either we would end up as enemies, or i will die of a stroke due to high blood pressure. Ha ha ha!

I am a homeschool mom for 3 years now and my relationship with my daughter has grown stronger. We fought and argued sometimes over lessons we both couldn't understand but, at the end of the day we mend things out. Next year, she will in senior high and will be going back to school. Part of me will be missing her but, I'm glad we're both able to survive homeschooling and I know she has learned a lot in this phase of her life and she will be able to use this on her next journey.

Madalas din kami nagtatalo ng anak ko at may mga bagay talagang hindi maiwasang mainis, pero kapag tinitignan ko sya after nun naiiyak ako madalas (parang OA pero ganub talaga nararamdaman ko) at alam ko na kailangan ko magsorry.
