I haven't found a good school for my 13 and 15 years old boys and I was wondering if anybody knows of homeschooling system here in Doha same like the ones in USA. Anybody knows of any groups please. By the way I work in a university here in doha and I know all Doha's schools. The ones I like for my kids to join don't have enough seats. Just to save you time if you think of suggusting any school. I appreciate your help in advance.

Learning about culture is important, but having good education is more important. My boys don't speak any Arabic. They have to be placed in a school with english program and these schools are few and most of the time they have long waiting lists.

to go to a Qatari school when you don't speak a word of Arabic. It's my understanding that the public Qatari schools only accept Qatari children.

Why homeschool? Why not embrace the country you are living in? When I live in UK I sent my kids to UK schools. It's a great chance to share culture.

I know many American ladies here and a lot of them are homeschooling. If you are interested I can get you one of their phone numbers(they are not all on QL)and you can ask her what programs they use.
