TEEN HOP's Homeschooler Hour
BRAVE TO FACE CHALLENGES Our experiences teach us the value of courage, determination and strength to move forward. We encounter different opportunities each day but it is up to us if we will back down or face them head on.
I remember every time I was asked to sing in front of a huge crowd. I always feel nervous that I might forget the lines of the song but also excited to perform my heart out.

HOMESCHOOL HOUR: WORLDWIDE NATIONAL HOMESCHOOL DAY CELEBRATION
HAPPY NATIONAL HOMESCHOOL DAY! We heard it quite often since we started the celebration of the National Homeschool Day from March 1 to March 5, 2021. The day of the National Homeschool Day is actually celebrated yearly, every 3rd of March. We remember the journey we had as Filipino parent-teachers, guardians, teachers and students, we had become a community of homeschoolers throughout the Philippines and some parts of the World.

The Mindanao Homeschooler Hour Experience: National Homeschool Day
A WARM HEART FROM MINDANAO… In every celebration we had in our lives, there is always that moment when we feel the out pour of emotions all around us. Homeschooling teaches us that every day, life always gives us something we could celebrate for, like a step, a hop, a leap, a bound - these are the basic milestones in our lives we need to be thankful for.
I’ve been a distance learner in the past, when I was in my 4th year Highschool I did “blended learning”, modules were given and we only come at school every Monday, Wednesday (academics) and Friday (P.

When Together, We Can Do More
When homeschool movers and leaders come together, we can do more! Many years ago as a HAPI Member, I wanted to gather as many homeschool representatives or leaders in the hope that in coming together, we can come up with a collective summary of concerns that well represents homeschoolers in general.

The Philippines’ National Homeschool Day
In the words of Senator "Kiko" Pangilinan, “We believe that if we are to shape our nation, we will have to shape first our communities, and if we are to shape our communities, we have to shape our families.” In January 2017, HAPI core member then, Dr. Donna Pangilinan-Simpao suggested to reach out to the Senate of the Philippines. The idea of setting a day as the National Homeschool Day for your country was raised.

Dear First Time Homeschooler
Dear First Time Homeschooler,
So you finally made the decision to homeschool? Let me congratulate you and yes, jump for JOY with you in making one of the best decisions you will ever make in raising your children. My children and I salute you ( See the photo???) Do not fret, many are with you. Many have gone ahead of you and many are willing to come alongside you. I have gone ahead of you for maybe several years and yes, because of several children, I am still homeschooling level 6 and 4 children.

What Homeschooling is Really About
I talk a lot about homeschooling, but I want you to know that my children aren’t always cooperative, there are days when I don’t feel like teaching, and sometimes I am the less than perfect mother who gets annoyed with her kids.
Two days ago, I was teaching Titus from his Singapore Math book and he couldn’t get subtraction using number bonds. I could tell he was guessing so I elevated my pitch and my tone was agitated.

Homeschooling in the Philippines: Where to Get Support
Most homeschoolers would probably agree with me when I say that homeschooling is less stressful and challenging when you know that you’re not alone. Support is important and, as we all know, “no man is an island,” and I think this applies especially to homeschooling parents (who are mostly moms).
