My mother never.....

My mother never sent me to public school. Ever since she first came here from India, my mom had a passion for teaching but, because of many reasons she was not able to become a teacher. So after I finished K-grade, my parents started to look for a good school to put me in. So while looking for a good school to put me in, my mom found a homeschooling program called Wilson Home-schooling. My mom thought it was great and she had a lot of spare time.And so I began homeschooling. School for me was extremely flexible and easygoing, I learned a lot from all the one-on-one attention, and there was no Standard which I had to compare myself to.The program we were doing required us to go to a teacher once week at the Wilson Academy, what I mean by this is that my education was still pretty controlled. So after a year of private school which really didn't work out for me, We stopped doing the Wilson Home-schooling program and my mother designed her own curriculum for me from various online sources. With this completely independent program, It gave my family and me a lot of flexibility to go where ever we wanted , whenever we wanted. We went to everywhere from the busy streets of san franciso to the peaceful quietness of yosemite national park. Almost everyday we went out to a different place like a zoo or a park , or a museum, and it was all possible because of my mothers great idea of homeschooling us. There was probably no kid my age who had as much fun and amazing experiences as I had at the time I was homeschooling. Everyday was a new adventure. As for studying, If we went on a week long trip we would make a plan on what i had to study and when, but if we where at home, I studied at anytime during the day usually in short 1 hour intervals. Soon my brother and sister were old enough and they joined me in homeschooling. I continued homeschooling till I was 15 years old, when my Father found another great program that I could get into. The program was a middle college program that 8th graders could go through to finish high school faster. Basically, since one college credit equals 2 high school credits, Taking college classes helped the students finish high school faster and gave them a college level education experience if they could handle it. All you had to do was pass the evaluation test and the rest is self explanatory. And so I started my first year of college at San Jose City College in the Fall of 2011 and I aced the Evaluation thanks to the effectiveness of homeschooling. And of course Thanks to my mother.
