The first step is for parents to take the child out of school and invest time in their relationship with their child, getting to know them better.

The second step is for parents to equip themselves by reading books, attending seminars or visit a homeschool consultant. Parents should also get support from other homeschoolers by joining a homeschool mailing list and support group.

Thirdly, parents can start homeschooling right away by visiting the library and reading good classical books to their children, explore their childs interests and kindle the love for learning.

Fourthly parents should not buy an expensive curriculum in the first year of homeschooling as they first want to discover their childs learningstyle and the homeschooling approach which will suit their child and family best.
