Courses That Teach Every Learning Style
Every child is different, and SchoolhouseTeachers.com knows that. You and your child have the opportunity to not only choose courses according to their subject and topic, but you also can choose according to the type of media content used.
Courses are text based, audio based, video based, and also combinations of the three.
For example, Advanced Chemistry is video based, Spanish I has an audio component, and A Splash of Geography uses downloadable text.
Course Lesson Plans and Answers
Don’t worry about the time that it will take you to figure out what your child needs to complete each day in each course. Every course comes with its own set of lesson plans. All you have to do is print it out for your child. They fill in the date and check off when something is completed.
What’s even better is, printable worksheets come with the answers included!
Easy Course Planning with School Boxes
School boxes are courses that SchoolhouseTeachers.com has compiled together to form a year’s worth of education for every grade level. They’ve already looked at the length of each class and the type of media used for teaching and they’ve put it all together, so that you don’t have to.
Now, don’t worry. Suppose you look at that list and your 12th grade son does not or refuses to take High School Home Economics. SchoolhouseTeachers.com makes it easy to delete it from the list. You can replace it with anything else that you choose.
You are more than welcome to plan your child’s courses according to your child’s interests, but if you don’t have time, you can let that planning work get done for you.

Living Life with Purpose
Living Life with Purpose is a short course that only lasts 5 weeks. The purpose for this class is to help high schoolers through the highs and lows of life by enforcing and educating biblical truths.
The first week of lessons is on “Doors”. Open doors, closed doors, thresholds, and doors that we open for others are the topics for the week.
The second week is about God’s big plan and how to have the correct heart for it.
Week three concentrates on the story of your life, and recognizing it and comparing it to Joseph in the Bible.
For the fourth week, character traits, personal changes, and servanthood are discussed.
The fifth week is all about searching for meaning and what really matters in life.
My daughter hasn’t started this course yet, but is on the schedule to begin in a couple of weeks. It looks like a very good and beneficial course.
