In recent years more and more families have elected to homeschool their children. Homeschooling not only allows children to spend more time with their families, but a homeschooling parent has the ability to tailor a curriculum as he or she sees fit. Compared to the cost of a private school, especially for multiple children, homeschooling is also a much more economical choice for many people. Below are some homeschooling tips.
Read Widely

This is one of the most important aspects of homeschooling your children properly. It is imperative that you read extensively on a wide variety of topics. Remember that you are attempting to provide your children with a better education than the public school system, so you want your reading to be on a broad range of subjects.
Although you will definitely want to read some books on the subject of homeschooling itself, don’t rely entirely on these books. It’s important that you are knowledgeable not only on how to teach, but on the subjects themselves. You will benefit yourself more from a broad knowledge base from which to teach, then specific knowledge of a particular pedagogical style.
Read general works on subjects like history, science, literature, and philosophy. Think of the range of subjects your children would encounter in the public school system, and gain a general knowledge of each. While all this reading may seem daunting, remember that you needn’t become an expert in these subjects. What will usually suffice is a general “history of” or “beginner’s guide to” the various topics.
You want to avoid, of course, having your knowledge of a given subject depend entirely on one person’s opinion or work, but at the same time be realistic: a few, short general works on the subjects should be sufficient to start. As you and your children start exploring the subjects in more depth, you may find new and different areas that you become interested in, and at that time you may seek out other books that cover the subjects in more depth. A good rule of thumb (assuming your children are young) is to read at least what a typical high school student would have to read on the subjects you plan to teach.
