Yes, it is true. We are able to actually educate and prepare our children with extensive academic knowledge, and especially\u00a0with helpful\u00a0life skills, extremely better than the schools are doing. If you think about\u00a0this rationally and intelligently for just a minute,\u00a0this seems to be a &#8220;duh&#8221; statement. I don&#8217;t want to be rude or arrogant about it, so I would rather say that many people seem to presume that this is not such a &#8220;but of course&#8221; statement at all. I assume that these people don&#8217;t think much about it.<\/p>\n<p>The first fact I would like to think about has to do with my\u00a0putting &#8220;at home&#8221; in quotes above. I did this because\u00a0the &#8220;home&#8221; education programs that many of us are\u00a0conducting are not taking place &#8220;at home&#8221; much of the time.\u00a0Our mobility and flexibility enables\u00a0 our school\u00a0activities\u00a0to be extremely rich with\u00a0experiences in academics and life skills through many &#8220;field trips&#8221; to various places, often. We are able\u00a0to visit\u00a0many different businesses and places with a multitude of\u00a0 occupational activities, from technological to agricultural. We can go to special programs given by various museums, national &amp; state parks, theaters, etc.\u00a0anytime.\u00a0We don&#8217;t require extra money for lunches, buses, parent permission slips, etc. We can even go spontaneously this morning, this afternoon, or tomorrow\u00a0if we choose. We are the best private school choice, because of this and many reasons.<\/p>\n<p>Many of our children are also taking part in music, performing arts, and sports training often, with serious and safe instructors, trainers and athletes. We are able to do this with\u00a0the mobility and flexibility of our schedules. This also enables\u00a0our school activities and experiences\u00a0to prepare our children\u00a0for &#8220;real life in today&#8217;s world&#8221; with vast\u00a0academic knowledge and helpful life skills\u00a0extremely better than the schools\u00a0are doing.<\/p>\n<p>We\u00a0are able to\u00a0do intensive studies in any, and every\u00a0subject we want, whenever it is best for our children, for as long as we like. We have access to almost of all the same resources that the schools have, and many times, we have access to\u00a0better resources than the schools have, or they don&#8217;t have,\u00a0or just won&#8217;t have. With this ability we are able to prepare our children better than the schools are, for today&#8217;s world.<\/p>\n<p><strong><strong>Email, or call me anytime, for evaluations done easily, quickly and very economically.\u00a0 I am a FL Department of Education certified<strong>\u00a0<\/strong>teacher.\u00a0 <strong>CCTucker7@gmail.com\u00a0 OR text\/call (<\/strong><\/strong><strong>786)525-3545 <\/strong><strong>C.
