What's It Like to Homeschool with Enjoy Education?
23rd October, 2024

Exploring the Joy of Learning at Home With Libby White, Our Head of Homeschooling
When I was asked by my team to write about what homeschooling with Enjoy Education is really like, I knew I had to start by speaking with our students. They are at the heart of everything we do, and their experiences best illustrate the transformative power of homeschooling with Enjoy. Here’s how three of our current home-schoolers described their time with us:
“Before homeschooling, I was struggling to keep up in class because of my anxiety. But with Enjoy, I feel like I can learn at my own pace without feeling overwhelmed. I love that my tutor understands how I learn best and always finds creative ways to make the lessons interesting—like using art to explain history!” Jessica, Year 8
“As a young athlete, I needed a more flexible schedule to balance training and schoolwork. With Enjoy, I can adjust my timetable around competitions, and I still get a top-quality education. I even got to study Japanese, which wasn’t an option at my old school.” Tom, Year 10
“Homeschooling with Enjoy has given me the chance to explore subjects I’m passionate about in-depth. The one-on-one lessons helped me regain my confidence after struggling with traditional school, and the tutors are amazing—they really make learning enjoyable.” Amelia, Year 12
These testimonials capture the essence of what makes homeschooling with Enjoy Education unique: a personalised, flexible, and supportive approach that adapts to each student’s needs and aspirations.
Why Do Families Choose to Homeschool with Enjoy?
Families come to us for many reasons, but they share the same goal: to provide an education that fits their child’s unique needs. Over the past year, we’ve worked with students who opted for homeschooling due to:
•Special Educational Needs (SEN) and Mental Health: Allowing students to learn at their own pace in a setting that feels safe and supportive.
•Relocation: Helping children transition smoothly during family moves, whether domestically or internationally.
•Professional Sporting Careers: Offering the flexibility to pursue both academic and athletic goals.
•Academic Gaps or Retakes: Supporting students who need to catch up, retake exams, or explore subjects not available at their previous schools.
For some students, the focus was on achieving top grades, while for others, the goal was to reignite a love for learning, build confidence, or prioritise personal well-being. Regardless of the reason, every programme shares the same commitment to delivering a high-quality education tailored to each individual.
A Personalised Learning Experience
At Enjoy, we believe in the power of bespoke education. Each homeschooling programme is crafted around the student’s learning profile, academic goals, and interests. Here’s how we make it work:
1. Flexible, Yet Structured Learning
Our programmes offer the freedom to shape your child’s education according to your family’s lifestyle, with the reassurance that their progress is closely monitored. You can choose the curriculum, subjects, and tutors, and adjust the timetable as needed. This flexibility allows students to take control of their learning, whether it’s dedicating time to academics or balancing other commitments.
Regular reviews and assessments ensure the programme remains on track. With end-of-term meetings, detailed tutor reports, and ongoing feedback, we keep parents informed every step of the way.
2. Tailored to Your Child’s Goals
Every child is different, and so are their educational needs. Whether your child is looking to overcome academic challenges or aims to excel in a specific subject, we collaborate with families to design a programme that fits. From choosing the right learning materials to setting achievable milestones, our goal is to help each student thrive.
3. Finding the Right Tutor Fit
The relationship between a tutor and a student can significantly impact the homeschooling experience. At Enjoy, we place great importance on matching students with tutors who complement their learning style, interests, and needs. Before starting, families have the chance to meet potential tutors and even arrange trial sessions, ensuring the best possible fit.
Beyond the Classroom: Fostering Passion and Social Connections
We believe that education is about more than academics. That’s why our homeschooling programmes also incorporate extra-curricular activities that nurture students’ curiosity and personal interests. Whether it’s learning to code, exploring drama, or pursuing a new hobby, we encourage students to try new things and discover what excites them.
We also organise social events and outings, such as theatre trips or escape room challenges, to give our home-schoolers the chance to connect and build friendships. These shared experiences help create a sense of community and add a social dimension to learning at home.
Putting Your Child at the Centre of Decision-Making
Homeschooling offers a unique opportunity to prioritise your child’s needs, interests, and well-being in their education. At Enjoy, we work closely with families to ensure that each homeschooling journey is designed to support your child’s growth, both academically and personally.
