Tips for learning Arabic
If you liked my singing and you want to sign a multi-million dollar record deal with me, then send me an email. The best way to learn is through repetition. Choose a word or a phrase that you want to learn and then say it at least 10 times, at several times during the day. Write it down in a notebook. Have an Arab listen to you so that you know that you are saying it perfectly. Maybe, after each Salah you could say the sentence 10 times. Use your hand to count, it helps.

Homeschoolers and Self Directed Learning
Homeschoolers engage in self directed learning far more than their publicly schooled counterparts. Homeschoolers quickly become self motivators and the self motivation they come to possess will last them their entire lives, making them responsible citizens in the future. How is it that homeschoolers become self-motivated learners?
First off, because homeschoolers are taught in the home setting, they already have two things going for them on the path to self-motivated, or self directed learning: homeschoolers have their parents as responsible role models, all day every day. Secondly, the homeschooler is not exposed to the poor behaviors of other children. Parents, by example, provide the homeschooler with myriad examples of self motivation and are available to encourage self-directed learning behaviors. Meanwhile, homeschoolers avoid the baneful affects of peer pressure, and they do not mimic the habits of less motivated students.
Homeschoolers develop enthusiasm for learning, because they are in a freer atmosphere than the publicly schooled child. Homeschoolers are encouraged to follow their own interests and will pursue such subjects with unmatched eagerness. The result: a strong sense of self directed learning develops. Homeschoolers establish their own challenges and their own educational adventures- making education a fun thing to embrace.
Homeschooling parents nurture their homeschoolers and urge them to be self directed learners. By acting as a guide to a subject, instead of an authoritarian instructor, homeschooling parents help their children learn without controlling how they learn. The homeschool objective is to allow the student to pursue areas of interest in an interesting way. One homeschooler may want to create a collage about an assignment they are learning, while another may want to write a report. Either way, the subject is mastered, and the homeschooler comes to enjoy the lesson because of the freedoms the child is allowed.
It’s no secret that children seek out the approval of their parents, and it is no different for the homeschooled child. Homeschoolers, eager to please their parents will strive to do their best on projects where self-directed learning is required. The warm encouragement that only a parent can offer promotes further self-directed learning in the future. Further, because it is the parent that knows the homeschooler best, they can help their child link their learning experiences to real life experiences that the child has had; it is a proven fact that a new lesson is retained better when it is linked to former learning and experiences.
