 Home schooling has been growing every year and parents are beginning to find that their kids are learning much more at home. Teachers are finding that small classes boost learning and it’s pretty difficult to get smaller than your family (Laura Vanderkam). Also home schooling really helps parents with kids that have special needs it really gets them the attention they need (Laura Vanderkam). The best thing about home schooling is that you can rearrange the curriculum to fit your child’s criteria (Laura Vanderkam). No matter what school you go to you most likely will not be able to find a school that will be able to do that (Laura Vanderkam). Many public schools cannot teach religious things anymore and allot of parents won’t their child to be educated on religion to. A 1994 study of 4,600 kids discovered that home schooled kids do better than 80% of public schooled kids on standardized test (Andrew Nikiforuk). “At home, a parent can focus flexibly on learning; character development and creativity in a way that most schools can't afford of have long abandoned ( Nikiforuk 1994)." On the ACT test home schooled people in 2001 averaged a score of 22.7, and non home schooled scored 21.0 (Carol Managhan). The level of education you can reach with home schooling is very high and more people discovering that it is something that can there child.  Another reason would be that it takes so much less time at home to be taught than at school with real certified teachers. Recent studies show that what takes an average home schooled student two hours to learn takes a regular school district six hours to teach. The majority of home schooled children out perform eighty percent of the traditionally schooled children. It is shown that parents can teach their children better than the certified teachers. So they can learn double what traditionally schooled kids learn in two-thirds the time. That would be the reason why they outperform them. Another cause of that would be that the parent can give the child more attention so they learn more.
