Hi, I’m Mason and I’m 14. I live in a small town in Texas in the USA. I’ve got three sisters and two brothers. I love basketball and baseball. I’m into hip hop and comics. I often ride a bike or go swimming. I read a lot of books, but I don’t go to school. I study at home together with my brothers and sisters. Our mum is our teacher and I love it! Why is homeschooling great? We learn the same things as our friends at school but it’s more fun. Our mum knows what we like and what is difficult for us. Just like in every school, we do homework and take tests. We don’t use course books because Mum usually prepares the lessons. She uses information from the internet or books. We sometimes go to the library or meet with other homeschooling families. We go on trips together to museums or to other interesting places. Homeschooling helps me enjoy studying. In the future, I want to go to university and study history. People always ask me ‘Don’t you miss friends?’ But I say, ‘How can you feel lonely when you’ve got three sisters and two brothers?’ We are very close, and we enjoy doing things together.

Mason will be 15 next year.

He studies with his siblings at home.
