Education is one of the most important investments you will ever make, whether it’s for you or for your children. Doing proper research before choosing a provider, can make all the difference in terms of the quality of education you will receive, as well as the opportunities it will open the door to. If you’re looking for a different type of education for yourself or your loved ones, read on to learn more about some of the interesting types of learning that are available around the world!
1. Homeschooling
You might have heard of homeschooling before, already been involved in homeschooling or wanted to know more about it but feeling a bit overwhelmed as to where to start. With the invention of the Internet, has come the ability to study college degrees and other formal education courses online from the comfort of your own home. Traditional homeschooling is more directed at teaching your own children, rather than sending them to a conventional school. There are many reasons why parents might consider homeschooling their own children: they might think they can give their children more personalized attention, it may be due to location and not being in a good area with schooling, it may be also because they’re traveling and unable to attend normal school.

2. Travelling
Is there a better way to learn about the world we live in, than to travel it? I don’t think so! When I have children, I plan to travel with them as much as possible, in order to show them how other people around the world live, to take them to the best museums and musical performances and to show them some of the world’s most historic sites. Obviously, I understand I’m blessed to be able to travel so much and to be able to share that experience with my future children. If you can travel with children, I definitely suggest doing so. It’s such a special way to spend time with your children and to also create special memories. There’s also no better way to learn about a country than to be actually there, enjoying all the sights, sounds and smells that a new place has to offer.
3. Coaching
You might have heard of people getting a coach for a range of different areas of their lives. You can get a fitness coach, that is essentially a personal trainer that is dedicated to getting you into the best shape possible. If you want to learn more about nutrition and how to properly eat for your fitness goals, then you can get a nutritional coach. You can find a coach for almost every area of your life, including a business coach. One type of coaching I’ve heard about and am very interested in is leadership coaching. You can learn how to improve the effectiveness of your team management through more effective decision making and improved collaboration and you can even have support to learn more about efficient fundraising.
Education is the best way you can invest in yourself and your loved ones. Consider these three types of unconventional education that can improve your job prospects and career.
