Studio Teachers
Young entertainers and athletes often need especially accomodating
tutors, willing to travel with them. Also, the laws regarding
the tutoring of children in the entertainment fields are often
stricter than with ordinary homeschooling.

in Education
Young performers face a serious challenge. They must somehow
balance two full-time careers _ that of a student and that of
a performer _ along with the busy lifestyle of being a kid. The
business of an education is crucial at this stage of life, and
children and their parents should examine all of their educational
options. by Shari Honig.
