How hard are online classes (high school summer school)?

We Answered:

My suggestion to you is to not take the online class if you failed Algebra 1, which was taught at the campus. This is because online classes are independent learning, and if you don't pay attention on the campus, it will be way more difficult for you to pay attention during an online class. Also, the instructor of online classes doesn't care if you pass or not, he is just there to teach you the standard course of study, and then it is your job to actually understand the material in depth and pass the exam for it.

How soon can you start online classes for high school?

We Answered:

First of all, read all the answers to the questions in the Home Schooling section of yahoo answers - there is a treasure of information for you just waiting there.
I have given some quality long answers and so have many others on this.

Our own son was the same, always exhausted and sick from being exhausted and from hating school and the rotten teachers, and more rotten kids. He is home schooled now and hasn't been sick since we took him out, he uses Florida Virtual School and gets state credit for every class he takes, and they are not a piece of cake but he is learning so much. He has been constantly surprised about it and often comes to me saying stuff like, ''Mom, they just don't teach this stuff in school, My friends don't know anything compared to what I'm learning here,'' and so on and so on. He feels very very good about himself and his life now.
You have to get your parents involved because it's on their authority that you can withdraw from school and register in home school. Your state I'm sure has a department for that. Also, google Home School Legal Defense and they can tell you what the laws are in your state and help you if you need it. They can guide your parents.

Besides on line, there are many programs you might want including from The Teaching Company. They have some great stuff on everything, dvd and audio also. WE used to use auto reverse and play tapes when the kids went to sleep and they loved it, easy way to learn.

You can revise your life and revitalize your brain and re- invent yourself if you want to and not be a sheep following sheep, like saying'' like'' when it's not appropiate and sounds so childish. If you want to do better and succeed, then you will, and if you don't care, then it doesn't matter anyway.
Honestly, good luck to you. You have to be pretty smart or you wouldn't be thinking 'home school'.

Taking high school online classes instead of attending, good or bad idea?

We Answered:

hi.
im 16 and i just moved to a different country and im currently taking high school online instead of going to school.
Its deffinatly not for a person who cant consentrate or who likes to put things off, trust me. I personally see pros and cons.
yes you can sleep in. but it tends to be a time sucker for some of these classes.
also, i really miss being around my friends. when your not in school you tend to fall out of the loop.
you almost feel in seclution cuz im not sure if you'd be able to do any proms or homecomings if you were to take everything online.

hope i helped.
good luck! :D

online high school classes that work with the American School of Correspondence course?

We Answered:

What do you mean "that work with"? You would need to use American School of Correspondence if that is the program that his school told you to use.
