[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What does your daily “teaching”  schedule look like?

What are annual teaching expenses like?

Are you in the DMV area?

How are the kids socialized?

I’ve thought about homeschooling and working part-time from home.[/quote]

OP here-- daily teaching schedule-- on non-co-op days, I teach/children work from about 8-1130/12. That includes a little break time here and there to let them unwind (I work in the morning for an hour or two and then after lunch during homework time, so about 4 hours per day). After lunch, sometimes they have a little 'homework' if they didn't finish all of a targeted lesson. On co-op days we are out of the house all morning and they just have some math and reading to do after lunch.

Expenses-- a few hundred a year, but I know plenty of people who do it on far less by taking better advantage of the library.

Socialization-- a very active co-op that meets with activities 2-3 times per week and includes plenty of time for unstructured play (in addition to classes) as well as team sports and community activities. They have friends who are homeschooled, privately educated, and publicly educated.
