PROS

Below we will discuss several reasons why there are pros in homeschooling.

1. The curriculum can be adjusted to the wishes of parents according to the needs of children
2. Parents can improve learning materials in areas that are controlled by children
3. Not focused on textbooks, more practical
4. Children's interactions tend to be limited because they are only in the same area
5. Rules that are more flexible and able to develop children's character
6. Minimizes a single distraction from other students. For example, the atmosphere of a noisy
study room
7. The health and safety of children is more guaranteed because it is easier for parents or tutors to
supervise
8. You will be better able to manage what your child can learn, and also your child can choose his
own way/method of learning. Unlike outside schools, with homeschooling you have more time
to monitor your child, and you can also choose your own curriculum and of course a curriculum
that is also easy for your child.
9. With homeschooling, your child will avoid harmful snacks or snacks that are not nutritious. The
benefits are obvious, because at home you can better manage the snacks.
10. There is no more violence for your child, you can start to consider it, by looking at your child's
criteria, is he a little weaker than his friends? or maybe he has bullying criteria. With
homeschooling, of course, your child will be spared from this violence, and you will also be
spared from the naughty habits of other children.
11. Your children will grow naturally, unlike ordinary schools which tend not to have time for your
child to grow. With homeschooling you can set study time, you can also see your child's natural
abilities, and of course you will be able to teach your child according to the speed at which he
learns, meaning that there is no need to rush to memorize or remember lessons.
12. No more pressure for your child. In foreign schools, exams/exams are often carried out which
make your child tense and stressed. With homeschooling your child will be more confident and
will be able to determine the direction of his life because he has freedom, and he also tends to
be confident because you can know the extent of his abilities.
13. Conducive Learning Atmosphere. The most important and felt benefit is that the learning
atmosphere that is created is quite conducive, comfortable, friendly, and friendly for children.
This condition will later be very beneficial for children who have hidden talents so that they can
be explored and expressed properly.
14. Children Become Learning Subjects. By learning through home schooling, children will get the
opportunity to be able to determine for themselves all the material they really want to learn. So
that indirectly, the child will really become a subject in the teaching and learning process.
15. Learning is Flexible .Because home schooling is informal education, of course the main key to
the home schooling process is its flexibility and flexibility. So that the learning process will not
be rigid and structured like a formal school. So that makes you feel comfortable in the learning
process.
16. Creating Safe Association Conditions. Another important benefit of home schooling is the
creation of safe associations and not deviating from social values for children. Parents can also
better monitor the condition and development of their children. Sometimes there is no definite
guarantee regarding the association that exists in formal schools. Even some formal schools are
very vulnerable to risks that can harm children in the future due to wrong social interactions.

 17. Children are ready to enter the community. Through home schooling, children will be able and
ready to plunge into the wider community. Why? This is because what is taught in home
schooling is mostly things that children often experience everyday. (read also: Autism in
Children)
18. Shaping Children's Character. Indirectly, home schooling has a pretty good impact on the
formation of children's character. As long as the home schooling institution teaches about the
rules that are often applied in formal schools. Then home schooling will have a good effect on
the development of children's character.
19. Individual Attention. In a public school setting, usually in a class there will be 30-40 students in a
class, with the condition of 1 teacher teaching. Therefore, teachers cannot give their attention
thoroughly to every child. Of course this would not be fair to the other children. However, in
home schooling, children will get more and more individual attention that they really need.
20. Study Religion Better. Home schooling will also have a good influence on religious learning by
children. Learning about religion is a fairly sensitive issue. So some formal schools seem to
avoid it. However, with home schooling, parents can control religious and moral learning in
children. By instilling deep beliefs and ideologies in children. So that children can be more
mature in the basics of the religion they believe in, which will affect their social life in the future.

PURPOSE AND BENEFITS OF HOMESCHOOLING

According to John Holt, the purpose of implementing homeschooling is:

1. Guarantee the completion of quality primary and secondary education for the process of
academic learning and life skills
2. Ensuring equity and easy access to education for every individual for the process of academic
learning and life skills
3. Serving students who need academic education and skills flexibly to improve their quality of
life.

According to Adilistiono, (2011: 36) homeschooling has the following benefits:

1. Children become the subject of study. Through homeschooling, children are really given the
opportunity to determine the materials they learn. Children really become subjects in learning
activities.
2. Flexible. As a form of the informal education system, the main key to organizing homeschooling
is flexibility and flexibility, so it shouldn't be rigid and too structured like a formal school. If it is
arranged in a standard curriculum, then homeschooling will actually lose its main meaning.
3. Contextual learning. Homeschooling is very possible to accommodate and support contextual
learning activities where each is in a variety of contexts, for example the context of the
environment where you live, family, friends, school, work, political policies and the earth's
ecosystem.
4. The object studied is very broad and real
CHILDREN WHO NEED HOMESCHOLLING:

1. Have Certain Diseases. There are various factors that make parents choose to send their
children through homeschooling. One of them is a child with certain disease conditions which if
forced to receive education through formal schools will have quite fatal consequences.
2. Disabilities. Children with physical disabilities will find it very difficult to participate in the
teaching and learning process in formal schools, especially when there is limited time and
supervision. Homeschooling can be the right choice so that it is comfortable to continue
receiving education without any obstacles.
3. ADHD (Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder). Conditions in which the child has difficulty
concentrating, hyperactive and impulsive behavior.
4. OCD (Obsessive Compulsive Disorder). Conditions in which children have fears, anxiety, thoughts
and feelings that are difficult to control so that they can interfere with their concentration and
learning environment.
5. 5. Dyslexia. Disorders in children that cause children to experience difficulties in writing,
reading, and spelling.
6. Dense Children's Activities. Each child has its own advantages. Some children have seen their
talent from an early age and made achievements. For example talent in singing or playing
music. In order for existing talents to continue without interfering with learning activities, it is
better for parents to choose homeschooling. This is because the available study time tends to
be flexible and can be adjusted to the busyness of the child.
7. Frequently Moving Parents' Jobs. Having parents who often change places of work such as
between cities and countries is certainly not an easy matter for children.There will be a lot of
paperwork to take care of to move from one school to another. Not to mention children have to
adapt continuously in a new school.

In cases like this homeschooling can be the right solution. Because, homeschooling is a child's
learning process that can be done anywhere online and parents don't have to bother taking care of
various documents. Save time and effort.
