Self-Paced (recorded) Online Classes
For 3rd - 12th Grade Homeschooled Students
Greetings Homeschooling Family,
My self-paced online classes enable students to work at their own pace while still receiving active teaching - students can see and hear me while I'm teaching and they can see me writing on the whiteboard, pointing to graphics, etc.
Please feel free to contact me if you have questions.
Greg
Professor Greg Landry
Homeschool Dad & Former College Professor

We focus on building critical thinking skills and developing a research and inquiry mindset with the resulting quality lab reports and thinking skills that affect every area of academics and life. I believe we should think critically, deeply, creatively, and biblically. God is glorified as we explore His Creation in depth... illuminating His creation - revealing His glory!

- Each recorded class is 30 minutes long and can be used at your pace during the school year.
- Students are taught by Greg Landry, a 20-year veteran homeschool dad and former college professor. Greg is a Christian and young Earth creationist. He has taught and mentored homeschooled students and college students in various capacities for 20+ years. Click here to see his bio.
- A written study guide electronic PDF (written by Greg Landry) is provided for each class.
- Homework and study guide material is suggested (but not required) for each class session and can be checked by parents for completion.
- Basic lab experiments (using household items) are suggested (but not required) for 3rd - 6th grade self-paced classes. Labs are not included in 6th -12th grade self-paced classes.
- A mid-term and final exam (and answer sheet) is supplied with each class and can be used as a grade for the class if parents would like a grade for the class.
- If our exams are used, that grade average can be listed on a student's transcript as a class taken with College Prep Science.
