Humans of Homeschool: Barrientos Family

Описание: "When Andrea was in traditional school, she would leave the house at 7:00AM, and to think her school was already just two minutes away. And then after school, she would go to her tutor to do her assignments and projects. She will be back home around 6:00PM or 7:00PM, because she was grade four and grade five during that time—so it was the whole day without Andrea, without a daughter. We realized that we need to spend more time with our daughter, that we also want to know what's going in her life, both in her academic life and in her personal life. But in traditional school, it's very hard for us to take her time. In homeschooling, we get to manage the schedule, our learning, our subjects, and we have time. For example, on weekdays, we can go out for lunch, or we can travel here and abroad to see our families, our grandparents and we can go to museums—that's one of the flexibility that it provides. And we also realize that our daughter is interested in American history. We decided to enroll her in US accreditation wherein she could study American history and the American Republic, the World War. There were a lot of inventions from back then that we use up to today. She's very interested in that and from there, we're just like water—we just flow towards her learning and we give her different opportunities to discover more about a subject or learn more about her interests. The time and the bonding and experience that we give her would last a lifetime so when she grows up and she has her own family, she would also know how to maximize the time to bond with her family and learn aligned in God's path as well." 🧡💚💜
