Homeschooling Around the World

Homeschooling is becoming more and more popular around the world. It is legal in some countries, not legal in others. Whether you are planning on homeschooling your children 100% or not, parents providing second language instruction to their children at home is often necessary to keep the minority language and culture alive. Homeschooling resources can be very helpful to you with this endeavor.

Here are some websites to help you learn about homeschooling in your country. (Note that the Bilingual/Bicultural Family Network does not take a stand on whether families should or should not homeschool their children.):
