A lotof times in the beginning of our homeschool journey, we tend to follow the public school set up, but soon realize that it is not necessary.

Public schools are nefarious for children of colour, I used to teach maths in the UK, many white teachers were passive-agressive towards them and had low expectation. Many kids were also denied placement into higher tracks in spite of their grades. If you are a nonwhite family, I strongly advise homeschooling your kids, or enrolling them in an ethnic private schools. White teachers by larhge cannot be trusted with the education of nonwhite children.

Hotep and thank you sis for the info!! I live in London, England and removed my son from his high school just before the summer holidays. Afrikan children in this country are unfortunately facing many problems due to miseducated "teachers" who have pre-conceived unfounded views about Afrikan peoples (stero-typing). It's time to be proactive. Hotep

Excellent advice, Sis! I've taught in the public school setting for ~10 years, and I see that what you say is true. If you homeschool it would be wise to design your own learning environment around your children--NOT try to mimic a traditional school setting. This will lead to frustration for you & your children. Really!

I thank you for your vids.

We currently don't have children but are looking into home schooling our children in the future because of the "gap' many children of African descent experience in the regular public/private schools. Your video has provided me with the support, education, and tools I need in order to properly and effective home school my future children. This video is priceless. Thank you for sharing.

[allornothin86]

Beloved, you have provided us with yet another substantive analysis to consider when determining whether or not 'socialization' is a necessity for the proper growth in comprehension and development of a child's mind. And I happen to agree with your position. My question for you beloved is, 'does at a young chronological age when many areas of a child's mind are budding harmoniously,...

New subbie! My daughter and I began homeschooling in March, she's in 8th grade. I totally used the online textbooks that they'd been using in her school for her, thinking I could just continue what they were doing. It didn't work. My daughter's learning style and their curriculum just weren't a good match and thank goodness it didn't take me too long to figure that out. So we've been doing an eclectic mix of library visits, fashion design classes and anything else in the community!
