in a different light. Focus now on how your childlearns. That’s right, make notes. Maybe your child learns betterby listening, maybe by doing, or perhaps the best teachingmethod may be more visual. If you are just starting out, a more traditional school at homeapproach may be the easiest to get up and going. And this isfine. Remember being comfortable with the teaching methodologyis a large part of the recipe. There are many different types of schooling at home curriculumpackages that you can choose from. Don’t worry if you don’t findany one that you feel perfectly matches your home teachingstyle.
