Besides you being in charge of your environment of learning from the comfort of your home, the benefits of Homeschooling offer more time and flexibility for different types of people and for all non-traditional learners.
Did you know there are different types of learners? The main types are Kinesthetics, Visuals, Auditory and Reading/Writing learners. As we have already mentioned in our post about Online Learning, each person learns at a different pace and processes information differently. What really matters is to understand how you learn better.
Just like there are different ways to learn, there are different teaching methods; the Homeschool method allows students to develop at their own pace. Benefiting not only different types of learners but also students with various learning disabilities.
The benefits of Homeschooling might be a good fit for students with autism, where they get overloaded with sensory issues like excessive light or sound. It is also excellent for students from a different culture facing a language barrier for additional time to learn. Homeschooling may also be recommended for students with attention deficit disorder (ADD) and anxiety disorders.
At Keystone Homeschool Program, students are free to work at their own pace and complete their courses within 12 months. Teachers are available during their office hours via videoconference to help students. Students who complete their graduation requirements graduate with an Ontario Secondary School Diploma from anywhere in the world. This is especially beneficial to students who are seeking to continue their post-secondary education in Canada. Even if students are completing their high school studies while living abroad, they can apply to Canadian Universities like domestic students. Learn more about the Keystone Homeschool Program here.
