G'luck with the schooling. As you well know, kids do wonderfully when
you just get them pointed in the right direction, watch carefully for
their strengths and weaknesses, and allow them to learn. Amazing what
they will do when you don't try to stifle their natural curiousity and
creativity.


Thank you. I'm hoping it will work out well for the child's sake. I
have a long relationship with home schooling...

Fact is that 30% - 40% of kids don't need teachers. They just need to be
pointed in the right direction. In Public Schools there are 25 - 30
students per teacher. The more face time a student gets with the
teacher, the better the student will learn. Go through the math and
English with them and show them how to get to the right answer. The only
real problem with small numbers of students is socialization. Find some
way for your students to interact with other kids, and don't forget the
museums. Having older students teach younger students is also good. You
never learn so well as when you teach.
