Give Your Children The Best Opportunity

One small step from you, is one big step for your child’s education!

Why choose Home Study Center

As teacher trainers and mentors, the founders have assisted their own children who struggled with ADHD to achieve success in their studies and life. Over the years they have guided numerous teachers towards educating pupils how to face challenges in a fast-changing world.

Teaching thinking skills is a major component of their teaching methodology.

In addition, we build up our pupil’s positive self-worth while fostering an attitude of gratitude.

Our home study center was started by our founders after they struggled to find the right school and guidance for one of their children. In conventional schooling they were repeatedly told their child was incapable of achieving academic and social success.

The founders did not find much assistance or support from educational institutions. Despite the bombardment of constant negativity, through their own teaching methods they were able to successfully assist their child in achieving matric and thereafter a university degree. Today he is well rounded and accomplished member of society who is liked by all.

After many years of teaching pupils and training teachers the founders realized that they can help other children and achieve positive results. As a result the home study center was born and has achieved positive outcomes.
