Whether or not to homeschool your child, using courseware systems or otherwise, is an enormous decision. Beverly Hernandez, a veteran homeschool parent who has taught her children from preschool to high school, offers some points to chew over.

Homeschooling is a very time-consuming enterprise. It’s much more, Hernandez points out, than just sitting down with books for a couple of hours a day, or helping your child with his or her courseware system learning material. You’ll be designing projects and performing experiments, preparing lessons, grading papers, taking field trips and park days, teaching music lessons, and more. A courseware system can certainly enhance your child’s learning experience, but ultimately it will be a relatively small part of his or her day.
