I'm considering homeschooling because my international school in japan is expensive, ($750 per MONTH) and since i have 2 other siblings, my family is having a hard time with it now. I want to know how much it may be and how can i start if it is cheaper? i forgot to add, there are no other schools that teach IN english other than the one i go to unless i go like 2 hours on a plane to another prefecture(state).

Hi. Home schooling is quite difficult. You have to pass many checks and tests quite often by some governmental groups to see that what you're learning is correct. There are fines & are also fees to pay for homeschooling. But the price is much lower. I would suggest going to a cheaper school. It's not really the school that counts, just the education of the student. You may look into getting a private tutor a day every fortnight for example. It wont be as expensive and you can focus on your subjects that you're not so confident on. Good luck.xx.
