Not every parent looks for the day when their child goes off to school. In fact, some parents are not sending their children to school at all. This is called homeschooling. In the United States, only about 3 percent of children homeschooled.

There are some reasons why some parents choose to homeschool. Some parents do not feel their children are safe in school because of bullying(霸凌). Other parents feel that public schools are not good enough. Homeschooling is also seen as a choice for families that live in rural areas, or families that move often.

Being homeschooled doesn’t mean a student cannot go to college. Most colleges accept homeschooled students. It is important and necessary, however, for students to create a portfolio(作品集) to show what they have learned.

In South Korea, many schools hire English teachers from abroad, but as you know, there are not so many English native teachers in South Korea. A team of engineers has created a robot that they hope will take the place of foreign teachers.

Robots will save money for schools. The cost to build a robot and hire a Filipino teacher to work with it is around$20,000 a year. That is about half the cost of supporting a foreign teacher in South Korea.What's more,robot teachers can make students have more fun learning English.

The robot teacher is called Engkey. She is about one meter tall and is white, egg-shaped. She takes a screen as her face. She can move around her classroom while speaking to students, reading books to them and dancing to music by moving her head and arms.So this robot is more than a video screen on wheels. But Engkey’s voice is not her own. It is controlled by English teachers.With the help of the camera, English teachers in the Philippines can see and hear the students.

Engkey’s creators say that they don't know how successful the robot is as a teacher now. But they hope that someday all schools in South Korea will have a robot in the classroom.
