Home Study Program (HSP) and Charter Schools of California - Parents have the option to enroll their child to the nearest public school for a home-based study program, where the school will assign a teacher who will facilitate and check the student's home-schooling on a monthly basis. Children are allowed to set their own pace in learning the lessons. There are no time pressures to learn a certain task or to keep up with other people. The lessons can also be tailorfitted to the needs of the children. For instance, if they are already good in Math and may need some work in English, the program can incorporate more time with English lessons and less with Math.

Although its effectiveness has not yet been proven conclusively, there are sectors that champion homeschooling because it provides a much more flexible process that can be adapted to a child s learning capability. For now, most experts agree that homeschool can be the best alternative for students who cannot cope with ordinary school setting. Some experts don't even see statistical differences in terms of academic achievement between home school students taught by parents with less formal education and those students being taught by parents that have acquired higher formal education. There are other positive home schooling statistics available that will help prove that such a method of educating children is just as effective.
