Usually regular schools and some homeschools may be strict in their gradings and submissions of tests and quizzes that may make the students pressured to get good grades. The parents too may be pressured to make the child remember the right answers to get good grades. Thus, learning may become mere stressful memorization.

In Homeschool of Asia Pacific (HAP) , every child enjoys learning and is not pressured or stressed. Every parent is trained to use relaxed effective teaching and grading methods.

Give individualized education, love, attention, encouragement, and support to your beloved children. HAP is also open to Catholics, Christians, non-Christians, children with special needs and over-aged teens and adults.

EFFECTIVE TEACHING

At HAP, we base teaching on the child’s learning styles , multiple intelligences, Bloom’s taxonomy and other learning theories. Click for more details.

FUN TRUE LEARNING

HAP uses 20-minute Short Lessons, Leisure Time as Reward for Studying, Narration, Oral Drills, Lots of Subjects, Formation of Good Habits and Love for learning, . When you enroll your child, you will be trained in this approach through our Parents’ Online Training

COLORFUL TEXTBOOKS

HAP has screened many Philippine textbooks. HAP chose the colorful and interesting textbooks for your child to enjoy. Click this to see sample pages of the textbooks.

VALUES-DRIVEN CONFIDENT KIDS

HAP offers a Catholic, Christian or Values-Driven Curriculum. Catholic textbooks are used for the Catholics while Values-Education textbooks , your own Bible Study and other Christian resources can beused by the Christians. Other religions may simply use the Values-Education textbooks.

The moral values of the parents are firmly passed to the children through the strong bonding created by the daily sessions with the kids. Parents and kids are always together unlike in the regular schools, kids may be influenced by bad peers while being unguarded by parents.

RELAXED HAPPY SOCIAL KIDS

HAP believes that kids should not be forced to study but motivated to study. Motivation comes from rewarding them with leisure time after doing the lessons for the day. Leisure time can involve playing with their friends or relatives, bringing them to a playground where they can meet other kids or letting them attend clubs/classes about their hobbies and interests.

OPEN TO CHILDREN WITH SPECIAL NEEDS TOO

Currently in the U.S.A., many families are homeschooling children with special needs, from attention deficit disorder to severe multiple handicaps. Parents found out that when they brought them home to be educated, they made significant progress than in traditional school setting.

In HAP homeschool, parents can give individualized education, flexibility, encouragement, and support to their beloved children.

OPEN GLOBALLY

The HAP programs can be undertaken by students in the Philippines and the world.

OPEN TO WORKING & NON-WORKING PARENTS

Because homeschooling is very flexible you can set your own schedule.
Teaching your child DOES NOT NEED to be 8 hours a day like regular schools. Regular schools need long hours to organize big numbers of students. Unlike them, teaching sessions can only be 60 minutes per day because you are handling only one child or one child at a time. It can be done after supper and you may opt to give an assignment for the next morning to check in the evening session. Reward the child with leisure time when he can pursue his interests and hobbies while you are out working.

If your work allows, you can bring your child with you and teach “practical, financial, career or business lessons” while working.

Whether you are new to homeschooling or a seasoned homeschool veteran, HAP can accommodate you. We will guide you and support you on how you can mold homeschool to your family’s lifestyle. We support you through the Parents’ Online Training Resources, Email, Phone and HAP Forum.

TIME & MONEY-SAVING

We have lower tuition fees than regular schools (and can be higher in quality , 50:1 vs. 1:1 ratio). We have a reasonable cost of high-quality textbooks. You save time & money because there’s no need for uniforms, brand new school shoes, daily baon, school bus/service, gas for sending and fetching your kid, going to the school in case of disciplinary actions, joining the traffic to and from school and the like.
