If you're having a tough time homeschooling your young kids, you're not alone. It hasn't been a walk in the park for "Thor" actor Chris Hemsworth either.

"I'm trying. I'm failing miserably," the "Avengers: Endgame" star and father of three said during a recent interview on "Jimmy Kimmel Live."

The actor went through a range of emotions when Kimmel asked him how his kids were getting schooled these days.

"It's sort of four or five hours of negotiation and bribery and then maybe 20 minutes of actual work, if that," he added.

Hemsworth and his wife Elsa Pataky share 6-year-old twin sons Sasha and Tristan and 7-year-old India. He says they've been on the computer "watching YouTube and stuff."

Hemsworth said he didn't realize how different some subjects were for children.

"Everything's changed since I was in school," said Hemsworth, citing changes in math to school curriculums. "I was talking to the teacher. The adding, and subtracting, and so on. It's not quite as straight-forward now. There's all these new little tricks and so on, which I don't understand. So, good luck [with] me teaching my kids."

Hemsworth isn't alone in his struggles.

During an episode of her web series, "#Momsplaining," "Frozen II" star Kristen Bell said homeschooling her children has been "absolutely miserable." Jennifer Lopez recently told Ellen DeGeneres she's stumped by her kids' math homework.

In the US, many public and private schools across the country have closed due to the coronavirus pandemic, with at least 55.1 million students affected as a result.

Hemsworth said he's at peace with how everything is going at home.

"I'm just relaxed in the idea that they're going to come out of this quarantine, you know, IQ a bit under par, a little behind," Hemsworth joked.
