Internet Home Schooling - A Reality By Nic Haffner

Nic Haffner

Is Internet Home Schooling for Everyone actually? Almost everything is available on the Internet - you name it and it's there; Internet home schooling is no exception. However, is Internet home schooling for everyone?


Online Home Schooling


As a matter of fact this is a task that brings great responsibility upon the parent and child alike; Internet home schooling can be done from home, not requiring physical presence of the child in a school or any other institution. Below are listed a few things one will need to consider when choosing Internet home schooling:


* The parents need to supervise the child even if they don't have to teach the subjects.


* The child is basically following his or her own schedule so parents need to step in and draw some studying hours which need to be followed everyday.


* The responsibility of finishing a task or home work needs to be verified by the parents.


* The Parents need to dedicate much more time to the child and his/her activities, as they are not having any social life or interaction with children that they would have normally have in school.


Home schooling can really be tough, as the pressure is directly on the parents as far as the child's education; however, Internet home schooling is a better choice if you don't think you will do justice in providing quality teachings to your child.


What are the Benefits of Internet Home Schooling?


Below are some benefits of Internet home schooling over parent home schooling:


* The child will be exposed to actual teachers with academic background and experience in teaching over the internet


* The child interacts with other children at his or her own age and will be able to create a social life besides the one available in the home


* The Parents can get help with the child's home schooling from teachers and other parents in similar situations


* Internet or online home schooling has a number of activities that will help you and your child cope with home schooling and achieve the best results


Home schooling is a great responsibility and while some have done a great job and have children who are grateful for the decision, others can make huge mistakes that will reflect on the child later in his/her life.


You should make such decisions carefully and only after considering all risks and available options. It goes without saying that all parents want what is best for their children but sometimes it doesn't work out that way. Sometimes doing everything yourself in order to do it right is not the right choice for you or your family and sometimes that is the only choice. No one else but the parents can make that decision. Whether we prefer studying on the web or not, we must find a home schooling program that is right for us.

Homeschool Your Child To Vedic Math - The Worlds Fastest Mental Math System By Gaurav Tekriwal

Gaurav Tekriwal

Some questions to ponder:


- How could the Aryan civilization, near the Hunza Valley, 5,000 years ago, mentally compute mathematical operations that today only a calculator could achieve?


- And if the Math could not be done mentally, how could they do everything we know today, IN ONE-LINE? eg: converting the fraction 1/19 into a decimal is an 18 digit answer that requires 35 lines of exhausting long division, how could they do it in a one simple line solution?


- Why is NASA using this MENTAL ONE-LINE SYSTEM OF ARITHMETIC in the field of Advanced Artificial Intelligence? Why is INTEL using it in chip designing?


- How can your child become a Human Bio-Calculator?


- Is the current Western Math Curriculum keeping our Children in a state of limited intelligence?


You are home schooling your 14 year old teen in Math. You feel you can instill better values, character and education to your children. You want to give the Best to your child. You want to provide quality which is unattainable in schools. Imagine how your child would feel when he immediately realizes that you are teaching him powerful ways to do Math Calculations without any extra burden on the both of you. Infact he would now want you to take the Math Classes more often so that he gets a hang on to these new systems.


This system of teaching Math can complement your family’s strong learning system and can instill the values you want to develop in your child. It requires just knowledge of multiplication tables up to 9 to start learning it and it is easy to learn, Master and teach your child without being overwhelmed. Infact once you spend 2 minutes with your child on teaching him how to do this sum (shown here) he can at once teach 5 more of his friends to do it. It’s that simple!
Here’s a quick example of one of the Technique:


65 x 65 = ?


It is quite simple since both digits start from 6, so you take 6 and multiply with the next number 7 which gives you= 42 , the first part of the answer and take 5 and multiply by the next units 5 which gives you 25,so the final answer is 4225. Try 85 x 85 now. Answer 7225. Try 95 x 95 – Answer 9025 in the similar way.


Now how long did that take? This method can also be said to be the fastest in the world in mental math.


This system has the prowess to speed up Math Calculations by up to 1500% and supposedly seemingly difficult calculations like 998 x 997 can be solved in less than five seconds flat. With this system you can home school your child into becoming a Human Bio Calculator in a matter of a week’s time.


The answers to the question posed by this article in the beginning are found by understanding the ancient Indian system of High Speed Vedic (Sanskrit for Knowledge) Mathematics. It was rediscovered by Tirthaji (1884-1960) who was dux of India in Math and Sanskrit Philosopher who wrote and spoke perfect English. He reached the position of a Respected Pope in India, toured the United States in 1958 giving math lectures in Stanford, Caltech and even MIT and discovered the math knowledge which can solve every known math problem mentally and faster. He called his book and the subject ‘Vedic Mathematics’ after the Indian Scriptures called Vedas which mean knowledge. It is absolutely mathematical, scientific and global in nature and has nothing to do with any religion. Which means any person of any religion, country, ethnicity, color or race can use it and apply it and enjoy its tremendous benefits all across the world. No wonder it is being used by students from around the Globe of every race and origin to making their math calculations easier and is increasingly getting popular. Even NASA, INTEL and Microsoft are using it for the high end applications of Vedic Math.


A Look at this High Speed Vedic Mental Math tutorials and slide shows confirms the fact that it is indeed a miracle waiting to happen to your child.


Any teenager can learn Vedic Mathematics and enhance his numerical abilities. It helps the students not only in traditional academics, but it also enhances the IQ by enhancing the analytical skills and thought processes. This happens because the system is very coherent and intuitive and uses both sides of the brain thereby giving the student the winning edge. It is very satisfying to see young children’s eyes brighten when they see and learn the High Speed Vedic system and techniques.


Thomas, a 16 year old was able to apply these techniques with ease and without confusion when he learnt the Vertically and Crosswise Formula of multiplying two and three digit numbers Mentally and in One Line. He was able to solve correctly over 75 problems in less than 10 minutes which normally takes from 45-90 minutes to solve. This is simply incredible.


So how do you get started and homeschool your child into this system in a week’s time?


First your child should be over 14 years of age and should know multiplication tables upto 9. That is the only criteria to learn this system.


Try going through the High Speed Vedic Mental Math tutorials and see if your child enjoys the new methods. Show them the slide shows. You would have live results for your self whether or not to choose this as an alternative means to learn Math.


Squares of Numbers ending in 5


Multiplying numbers by 11-19 in less than five seconds


Instant Subtractions


Speed Division by 9.


See if he shows an interest. It shouldn’t overwhelm or burden him in any way. It should be as natural as possible.


Ask Questions to us. Go through the FAQ on our website below. Clarify your doubts you would have before deciding to introduce your child to it.


If you feel satisfied and your child is showing interest order a book or a DVD Set of over 10 hours on this phenomenal system which would suit your child best. I am sure if you could do these methods and are wondering why you didn’t learn them as a child-remember you could relive your childhood by introducing them to your child now. You could be igniting such a spark in your child now that he could be using this system for all his life and even introducing them to the next generation.


Give your child the best of education unattainable in schools.
