So true:
Mostly in elementary school where the teacher do not know what they are talking about. |

Much superior curriculum, yes it is. |

Depends on who is teaching....here are 2 examples that this isn't ALWAYS the case
1 my sister in law homeschooled her 5 children all the way through high school. She stopped math in
7th grade, and never taught them how to write a paper (I had to teach my niece when her 1st college
paper was due) My nephew spells like a 2nd grader.
2 I attended a private school for 8 years...once on the jr high/high school level the only
requirement for a teacher was a bachelor 's degree..in anything...no teaching cert! When this was
found out my mother put me in public school THANK GOODNESS where I was given a fabulous education |

It all depends on who you are and what you prefer |

Learning from a person you know can teach is better |

I agree that for some students private or home schooling indeed is better for some students.
However it all depends upon the school,child, and parents. It really is like comparing apples to
oranges and grapes. |

It's not true because you're talking about two entirely different types of schooling. Private and
home schools get to pick and choose which students to allow in, private schools, at least, routinely
get rid of poor-performing students which is why they appear to produce better results. Public
schools have to take all comers without exception. Homeschools are not required to test students,
the only students who typically consent to being tested are the ones who are headed for college,
which statistically weights homeschool students to the high end of the performance scale.
If everyone was held to the same standard, none of them would fare any better than any other. |

Its, not true, firstly, private school is very expensive, for expensive then Public, 2nd, The
private can always make their price go higher. 3rd, ITS VERY STRICT! |

This is not true. I went to a private school up until eighth grade. The education was the same.
Nothing was harder. Nothing was easier. It was the same. |

It's not an accurate general statement because the range and quality of home, private, and public
schools vary so greatly...
Home School - can be Harvard faculty teaching their kids to be brilliant, OR it can be hillbilly
farmers forcefeeding their kids religion and doing a halfass job on the rest.
Private School - can be a well funded ivy league style institution, OR a small cash strapped church
school past its prime.
Public School - can be inner city blight with drugs and guns, OR it can be THE school relied on by a
whole community which thus puts the best funding into it and is attended by all the kids of all
types of families in that town.
Look in my case I went to Kansas public schools up through high school. They were fine - neither
nightmares nor cake walks. And in fact many communities in that state don't have private school
alternatives so the public schools end up relatively well funded and attended. Then for college I
went to two private schools including out of state. They cost more than public, the education was
fine, but I must report I had peers going to state universities who were getting every bit as much
education as I did, maybe more, and their institutions were very large and well funded.
So coming back to my original point, it all depends on which schools you compare. |
