Why Learn From Home?

So what are the key benefits of learning from home? Many distance learners have discovered a number of advantages of studying in the home environment.

Learning from home:

  • allows you to work at your own pace
  • allows you to study in the surroundings of your own home – in the dining room, in your bedroom at any time of the day, so you can fit your studying around your family life.

Are there any disadvantages to learning from home?

  • you might miss the stimulation and camaraderie of working with others in a class
  • you might be tempted to skip your study periods or find yourself studying too much!
