A Homeschooling Comparison Takes an Unexpected Turn
A social media post comparing the efficiency of public schooling versus homeschooling sparks a humorous reply. The original post argues that homeschooling is more time-efficient, noting that one teacher can instruct a single student in three hours, whereas a public school teacher manages thirty students over seven hours. The post concludes with the prompt, "You do the math." A user named wesley.agner quickly responds with a self-deprecating joke, stating, "I can't do the math, I was homeschooled," effectively undercutting the original argument with irony.
didnt John Oliver found that a good amount of "homeschooling" was actually just cheap child workers? plus schools are more than just for learning math you need social skills that only a school can give you
Professor here. Homeschooled kids are on average better equipped, more well read (which is a super low bar here in the US), and not at all more awkward than their counterparts. I homeschool my kids and after teaching five years in the school system, the other commenters are right
people who went through public school and defend it are LITERALLY like slaves arguing about who's master is better. the public school system, as you know it, was invented in the late 1800s by Frederick "the great" for the EXPLICIT purpose of TEACHING OBEDIENCE; they wanted soldie
That's not what the statistics say, Wesley.
I have no idea how effective homeschooling is in USA but in Europe, it's quite eye-opening. Most homeschooled kids can easily rush through all material in 6-8 weeks, showing you how little kids actually learn at school. At school, kids simply don't care. They just sit and gawk at
University: 700 students, 1 Professor
I think homeschooling in USA is just as good as any school at this point. Look who the retards have elected as president right now, elected because the school system failed the American public.
I knew a family who's kids got 2 hrs. of "Masters of the Universe" every day for their homeschooling. The mother explained that there was a moral at the end of each episode.
Ah yes, defending public schools that are graduating kids with zero literacy skills.
All that smoking in bathrooms and sex with the teacher. No thanks. I'd rather go to public school.
