Frequently Asked Questions

No, you do not need to be a certified teacher to homeschool your child. In the U.S., homeschooling laws vary by state, but all states allow parents to educate their children at home without a teaching degree. Your role is to guide your child’s learning, and with the right resources, curriculum, and support, you can provide an excellent education tailored to their needs.

No, you don’t have to personally teach every subject! One of the great things about homeschooling is the flexibility to use a variety of resources, including online courses, co-ops, tutors, and educational apps. Many parents outsource subjects they feel less confident teaching, like higher-level math or foreign languages, while focusing on the areas they enjoy.

Yes! You can start homeschooling in the middle of the year at any time that works best for your family. Many parents make the switch mid-year for various reasons, and while there may be an adjustment period, it’s completely doable. The key is to check your state’s homeschooling requirements, withdraw your child from their current school (if necessary), and create a simple plan to get started.

No, you don’t have to homeschool for six hours a day like public schools. Homeschooling is more efficient because you’re focusing on your child’s individual needs without the distractions of a traditional classroom. Homeschoolers usually spend anywhere from 30 minutes to 4 hours on structured learning, depending on their child’s age and learning style. The rest of the day can include hands-on activities, play, reading, and real-world learning. Check your state laws for any specific time requirements, but in most cases, you have the flexibility to create a schedule that works for your family.
