Home Education Abroad |

If you are living away from your home culture, you may want to teach your children at home while you settle in and visit the local schools, or you might decide that it's a good opportunity to try out home education long-term. If you are posted abroad temporarily, home education can be a good way of bridging the gap for your children, so that they are not disrupted by a totally new school system. This website includes lots of resources for those homeschooling overseas.
Details about home educating in some countries outside the UK are given in the following web sites.

Chevra |
|
Chevra was formed in September 1998 as an online support community for Jewish homeschoolers of all varieties. It tends to be a very chatty place where they discuss Jewish observance, homeschooling, family life, outside interests, and (the favorite topic) why the laundry never seems to get done. If you are looking for a group that discusses only homeschooling and Judaic resources, you may very well be disappointed in Chevra's free-wheeling discussions of everything under the sun, but there is lots of great information here. |
