Children’s Nursery Dubai vs. Homeschool


Are you considering a Children’s Nursery Dubai vs. homeschooling your child, there are advantages and disadvantages to both. How does a parent decide which is the best option for their child. Despite looking at the pros and cons of both, there is no correct solution and a decision will have to made by the respective parent, as one child may thrive in the preschool environment while for others this sort of environment may be intimidating and very scary. 
Every Nursery in Dubai and homeschool differ, based on the resources, staff and funding. 
Here are some of the advantages of sending a child to a nursery, 
For a child who responds well to peers, instructions from adults and does not need constant supervision and attention a Children's nursery will be a good fit. The child will have many opportunities to interact with other children, will be able to learn things from each of these interactions and could also be encouraged to learn by competing with other children.  
Another advantage of Kindergarten in Dubai is that a child often has the opportunity to help other children. Children learn to recognize situations in which they can help and learns to be a leader and teacher, by helping classmates and other students by problem solving. 
Nursery schools also have trained professionals that are directly involved in the child’s education. Teachers are often trained to look for and recognize learning disabilities or children who are gifted at the early stages so that the school can have special programs to help accommodate this sort of children, whereas a child that is being home schooled may have a disability that is overlooked or may not have access to the knowledge, resources, or equipment needed to help the child with his special needs. Parents may not pick up any learning disabilities until it's too late, as they are inexperienced as well. 
 Another proof Nurseries in UAE is that compared to homeschool, they have the professional resources like counselling, free meals and special educational trips. A child who is being homeschooled may not have access to these benefits. 
Some of the benefits of homeschooling a child, 
A child who is timid and does not do well in a group setting, may come shy and get lost in the  crowd. The child may be scared to ask for help if he does not understand an assignment or lack of communication between teachers may not make it clear that the child  is struggling in a particular area. Some children may also be intimidated by other children and will not make an effort to try something they like just because they are worried about what others will think of them. For these children the best learning environment is for them to be in the comfort of their own home with one on one instruction and no comparison to other children. This can make a world of difference in how well he learns and performs as well.   
Homeschooling can be a very positive and rewarding experience, but it takes a lot of time and dedication.
