Is homeschooling right for your child?
Independent, curious, and inquisitive learners may enjoy the freedom of learning at their own pace without having to adhere to the strict regulations of traditional schools. In lieu of Hong Kong's strong focus on a liberal arts education, learners can focus on the subjects and disciplines they enjoy most, while allowing complete freedom in their schedule outside of the online learning environment. The COVID-19 pandemic has empirically showed that an online learning environment in no way hinders learners who can be independent, while allowing learners to have more free time and freedom in their personal lives outside of learning. The one-to-one learning environment allows our tutors to cater to your child's specific learning needs - a bespoke curriculum is designed for each and every learner to be 100% customised to their individual needs.
