How do you say homeschool in spanish? ¿Cómo se dice homeschool en español?

Can you answer nicole’s question about Homeschooling?:

I am writing a paper on homeschooling in spanish and am not sure how to talk about it.

to homeschool = enseñar en la casa/hoger
homeschool or homeschooling= escuela de la casa
a homeschooler = un estudiante de la casa

Not sure if any of these are right, and they are all pretty wordy.
Are there an exact equivalents for these word in spanish?

    Homeschooling Feedback: There is not an exact equivalent for “homeschool” in Spanish; the best option is “enseñar en la casa” or “clases particulares”.

    Homeschooling Feedback: There isn’t an exact translation for “home school,” but you can say these:

    Educación escolar en casa
    Educación escolar en el hogar
    Escuela en casa
    Escuela en el hogar

    For the verb “homeschool,” you can say:

    Enseñar en casa
    Enseñar en el hogar

    There are also other ways of saying something similar to this like “él/ella es mi maestro/a en mi casa,” which means “he/she is my teacher in my house.”

    A homeschooler would be something like these:

    un estudiante de educación escolar en casa
    un estudiante de educación escolar en el hogar
    un estudiante que tiene escuela en casa (o en el hogar)

    I hope this helps.
