    I am from the US We just pulled our daughter out and put her in Homeschooling. She is actually thriving . Bullying and falling behind etc.. Our daughter has high functioning / moderate Autism and I believe taking the time to help her learning the way she needs to learn , will help prepare her for life

    Thanks, I hv bn so anxious to hv kids bcz of the fear of sending them to traditional school system. I don't want them to be scared and hate their life since their early years of life. Today I decided that I would not send them to school. N then I searched for homeschooling n found ur channel. Thank u so much to initiate such thing. I hope u will share more like challenges n how u urself manage it wd ur own life.

    So sorry to hear about your partner, how are you doing? We experimented for a while before we got the balance - but it's never really finished. Some days the kids are tired, or energetic or distracted or want to focus on something. One of the best things about home schooling is having the ability to be flexible and find a way to work that benefits all of you.

    You can get pretty much everything on Twink, but having the book helps give a sense of progress. It's nice to mix and match between the two.

    Hi thank you for ur amazing videos.i have recently starteed homeschooling my 3 and 6 year old. Can u please help me out with the Scholastic Books? I am not sure exactly which ones to buy as theres quite a few in the 100 Practise Activities Series? Does one English book such as this ( shop.scholastic.co.uk/products/94612) cover All areas such as grammar..punctuation..speling..comprehension...

    Thank you! Glad you like them! Hmmm, the Scholastic books we used covered all of those topics for a particular school year - but it looks like they've changed the way they work now... The ones we have are still available on Amazon: Scholastic English Book 6 (10-11) amzn.to/3apeimP Scholastic English Book 4 (8-9) amzn.to/2QL2h39
