Abstract

The relevance of studying alternative forms of education has increased against the backdrop of criticism of the school education system, which has intensified during the pandemic. The article is based on empirical data that shows that homeschoolers often have problems when changing from a traditional education system to family education. The problems are related to misunderstanding and criticism from friends and relatives, as well as parents' doubts about their professionalism and the ability to successfully combine two social roles (parent and teacher) in the learning process. Particular attention was paid to the problems that were initiated by the school when changing the form of education to homeschooling. It is shown that representatives of educational organizations are concerned about the quality of the organization of the educational process in the family, related not only to the qualifications of parents, but also to the breadth and depth of knowledge presented to children, as well as certain aspects of the socialization of students in the family. The study shows that parents take responsibility for the education of the child, provide the necessary conditions for organizing a high-quality educational process and respond to each formulated argument with a counterargument expressed in effective behavioral practices for organizing education in the family.
