Specific Purpose: To inform my audience about the drawbacks of the home schooling.
Central Idea: I believe the traditional schools are better than homeschooling.
Can homeschooling do a good job?
Introduction:
Some information is from (http://mothering.com/education/the-satisfied-learner?page=0,0) I. Education is a big problem for people. Parents really care about it because it is related to children’s future. It may decide what kind of job the children can do, how hard the job is, how much salary they can get. All of us want the children have a better future and they can give good lives to their children and companions (kang pan nian si). We used to go to traditional schools and get the educations and knowledge from the teachers. II. Nowadays, parents have gotten enough of them, and they want to change the situations (se qiu ei sheng si). They believe that they can give the better educations to their children. They refuse (rui phy s) to send their children to the traditional schools and try to home school their children. In the “How Families Home school Their Teens,” by Cali Cohen (ka li kao en), he explains (ei ke si plan) three approaches (a kao che si) of homeschooling. They had the different situations (se qiu ei sheng s), but all of them enjoy those. Nikki-the long distance learner, enrolled (in rou de) in the American School, a fully accredited (e kuai rui di dei de), independent study correspondence (ke ruo s bang deng si) institution ( in si du tu sheng). David Jackson learned anything he wanted to learn at home and explored (e ke si plao de) his world. Andy Herndon (heng deng), he learned not only what he wanted to learn, he learned knowledge that he can learned in the traditional school. III. However, I believe the traditional schools are better than homeschooling because the teachers know how to train children in right ways, and children can make more friends in traditional schools.
Body:
Some information is from ( http://mothering.com/education/the-satisfied-learner?page=0,0) I. First of all, parents cannot teach as well as traditional teachers can do. The teachers are good for children because they have learned how to educate children. Unlike traditional school, children who go to home school may study at home, and parents who tend not to have professional (pe e fai sheng no) skill to teach them. Therefore, they cannot learn as much as they should learn. For example, in the article, Cohen shows that David’s mother Gail’s formal education ended with her high school diploma, so it might be difficult for her to teach her sons well. In addition (e di sheng), although he went to the library and museum to learn more skill, he might not be able to get some subjects. In sum up, the teachers in traditional school allow the students to get better educations because they have professional skill to teach. II. Second, children can make more peers. As they are young, friends are important for them because they tend to need the companions to share the joy and happiness, and their relationships maybe pure. If they go to the traditional school, they have a lot of chance to meet new friends and do a lot of children things. In contrast, if they accept (ei ke sai pu te) homeschooling, they have to face their parents every day. It seems to be hard for the children to make new friends in the same age. Therefore, perhaps (pe ha pu si) their childhoods would be boring, and it may cause some psychological (sai kou la zhei kou) problems with children. For example, there was a really horrible (hao rui bao) incident happened in America long time ago. There was a man whose name is Ed Gein, who stayed in a little farm the whole life, and he stayed at home almost all his childhood, which infers he did not have any friends. After his mother’s death, his mind was abnormal; he killed many people, and all his family past away. His insanity (in ne sai ne di) tells that the children can make friends to grow up normally. If his childhood was filled with delights (de light s) of sharing with his peers, he may have not killed them. Therefore, childhoods should be filled with pride and gladness with peers. In short, traditional schools can help them get more chances to make peers, and it helps children have higher quality of lives. III. Some people would argue that homeschooling let the students get more colorful lives because they have more time on making friends, doing their hobbies and entertaining (enter ti ning) activities. While that can be true in some cases, it also really depends on the person. In Cohen’s (kou na si) article, Nikki did not have enough time to make friends, do the hobbies or entertaining activities when she was in traditional school. That is why she decided to go to the homeschooling. However, in my experience (ei ke si bi er ring si) , I always could have time to make friends and did my hobbies. Actually, when I was in traditional high school, I had to prepare (pe pai er) for the college entrance (in chun si) examination (exam nation), so I was very busy to focus (fao ke si) on studying. However, I could make time to play basketball with my classmates, and it helped me to keep health and relax from pressures (pu ruai she si) of study. Like me, children can make time to get new friends and do hobbies even though they go to traditional schools. School is not only a good place for study, but also a good place to grow up. Teachers care about students’ health, and they will always ask students for doing exercises (ai ke si sai ze si), so we do not need to worry about the free time, no enough time to make friends, doing exercise or entertaining activities. In sum up, going traditional school Allows students to active and get peers.
Conclusion:
I. In conclusion, going traditional school is one of the best educational ways because teachers are professional to teach students while parents do not have the skill. II. Also, children who go to traditional schools can get more easily (yi ze lei) friends with who give happy childhoods than students who choose homeschooling. Traditional schools allow students to have better educations and social skill like talking with peers and teachers. It may lead to better society in the future because educations are one of the most important things in the society.
