“I took TPS History courses in high school. I am now going into my senior year of college as a history major. I recently had the opportunity to study for a semester at the University of Oxford. For my final seminar paper I wrote an extension of the final paper I wrote for TPS World History. For the Oxford paper I was able to research original documents at the National Archives in London. I then presented that paper at the Phi Alpha Theta Conference (U.S. national history honor society). I am applying for the Fulbright Scholarship to get my masters in England and I plan to go on to get my PhD. Thank you for inspiring and encouraging me in high school.”

Lauren B (alumnus)

“This course offers a healthy balance between learning British history (covering over 1,300 years of literature) and continuing the practice of writing composition. Through reading and discussion, the teacher guides students in reading literature and interpreting it correctly. I recommend this course to any student that wants an exciting change in their studies.”

Mya M (student – British Literature)

“I really enjoyed the reading material that we covered in this class. It was very interesting and made learning about the topics fun.”

Elle B (student – Elementary Humanities: History and Literature of the United States)

“My experience with this course and teacher has been nothing other than wonderful! The course goes at a good pace so that the last weeks of the course are a comprehensive review for the AP exam, including several full practice AP tests, free response practice, and in-class review/practice. This course helped me know exactly what to expect on the AP test and how to be prepared for it. This course also gave me a strong mathematical base as I pursue an undergraduate degree in the STEM field.”

Rachel C (student – BC Calculus)

“Thank you for all you have done and continue to do with TPS. I grew up in a relatively isolated setting. While for some students TPS may be just a strong academic education, for others like me it was much more. Many years later and I can still look back and remember the courses and teachers and the lessons they taught me, even outside of the academic content itself. For example, the theology class helped me to process my faith as something personal and necessary, and not just receive information from someone else and take it at face value. Beyond the courses, I know that I would not be where I am in my life and career had I never developed community and relationship in TPS through the classes, trips, events and more. Thank you for the quality education, but especially for investing in more than just an education for so many people.”

Jordan S (alumnus)

“I am Chinese learning to write English. With the teaching of the TPS I can write this myself.

I was born in a Christian family. And I have been homeschooling for eight years. When one day, my parent wants me to go to TPS, I work hard to prepare for a chance to prove myself. Then the test came. I used up all that I learned and written it in this test. But sadly, I didn’t get a good grade. You might think I have given up, but no, I didn’t. I was glad that I had this chance to test my level and improve from the mistakes I made. The most important thing was your attitude toward it. Now, here I am in EFL-I. I like my teacher. She helped me a lot with my work and I learned so much from her.”

Robert R (student)

“This course was awesome. I came into the course knowing too little about U.S. Government, and I left it feeling like my knowledge on the subject had increased 100-fold. The teacher does an excellent job teaching the material, and makes class time enjoyable. If you’re not afraid of hard work and want an awesome overview of American Government and Politics, then I highly recommend this course!”

Zaid A (student – AP U.S. Government and Politics)

“Leaving TPS, I was well-prepared for my college level writing courses and today I am the go-to proofreader at work.”

Amanda M (alumnus)

“I really enjoyed this class. This is not only an AP test prep class, but also a full high school U.S. history course. I take the AP test soon and I feel well-prepared. I appreciated the weekly video segment to help us specifically on writing AP essays. We also went beyond the textbook in class discussions which were super interesting and helped me gain more perspective on U.S. history.”

Susannah G (student – AP U.S. History)

“This course is a great way to get both English and History. Yes, there may be two classes per week, but the homework is less than what it would be if you took English and History separately. And the teachers are AMAZING.”

Isaak J (student – Medieval, Renaissance, Reformation History, Literature and Composition)

“TPS isn’t just a school, it’s a safe community for Christian kids. When I first joined TPS, I was a very lonely middle-schooler with few social opportunities and no friends. Not only did TPS give me a wonderful high school education, it gave me a chance to meet other homeschoolers my age. Over the years I have formed very close friendships with people from all over the world. I have found Christian teens who have blessed me and impacted my life on so many levels. I’m so thankful that TPS is a perfect environment in which I can build life-long friendships.”

Emma W (student)

“I have been in TPS Math from Pre-Algebra to AP Calculus, and the teachers do a wonderful job of teaching and explaining the concepts. When a student has a question, or does not understand something fully, the teacher will help the student to fully grasp the concept before moving to another part of the lesson. Additionally, whenever students have homework questions, the teacher will be sure to go over the question and help the students. I am well prepared for college and beyond because of the rigorous structure of TPS Math.”

Elyse G (student)

“This course really teaches a lot! This remarkable class taught me about important people, kingdoms and empires. We also learned a lot of new vocabulary! The class gave me a full picture of life in Mesopotamia, Egypt, Israel, Greece, and Rome. Sometimes, we even played review games to go over our last unit! People might say history is boring, but in reality it can be fun.”

Benjamin W (student – Elementary Humanities: History and Literature of the Ancient World)

“The College Composition class has greatly improved my writing this year. I came in with little confidence as a writer and found myself very nervous about the class. The teacher worked to help me increase my confidence and to provide feedback that elevated my style of writing. After this class, I now feel ready to attend college next year with confidence that I have the foundation I need to be successful in my college writing courses. I would highly recommend this class to anyone.”

Rachel C (student – College Composition)

“This class was so much fun! Even though it was challenging at points, it barely felt like school. There were so many resources for helping me do better, from the actual class time, to more videos, to the teacher giving me advice through email, to the class mates giving me suggestions and ideas. Throughout the year we learned to understand design and its elements, build things out of our imagination, and work out design problems. If you like to design, draw, do any type of art, figure out problems, or work with computers, this class is for you!”

Dalyah G (student – Adobe Illustrator)

“Advanced Composition takes a writer and gives him experience and ability. It first focuses on improving the basic writing skills necessary, then moves on to the fun part of growing him as a writer. I disliked writing before I took this course; now I love it.”

David C (student – Advanced Composition)

“As an art lover and a history lover, I really liked this course! Strongly recommend it! I think everyone who takes this course will gain a lot from it, no matter whether you are going into an art career or just have an interest in art. 🙂 This course is a fantastic chance to study great art works, famous artists, and the thoughts, cultures, and traditions behind the art. Plus a great teacher!”

Erica Z (student – AP Art History)

“I really enjoyed this class and learned lots of cool stuff. It made me want to study science more. I look forward to taking the other Elementary Science next year.”

Angelina B (student – Elementary Science)

“I would wholeheartedly recommend TPS English 1. My writing has improved tremendously because of this course. I do not fear writing anymore, and I feel more comfortable when I sit down to write. The teachers for this course are absolutely awesome. They took the time go over the material in detail and to encourage me. TPS English 1 is a great course for anyone struggling and uncomfortable with writing, as well as those who just need to polish their skills.”

Michael G (student – English 1)

“I thought this course would be extremely difficult, but it was easy to follow and the teacher gave great feedback. Classes were lots of fun and didn’t feel like work. And my knowledge of World History has greatly improved!”

Alan J (student – AP World History)

“I started TPS in 7th grade, taking English 1 and Latin. After that year I began taking nearly all my classes from TPS, through my high school graduation, from English 1 through Advanced Composition, Literature, and Poetry, to math, where I did Algebra 1 through AP calculus, to an awesome four years of French, and several electives ranging from Web Design to Study Skills to Theology. I loved my time with TPS. I’m now graduating from Grace College with my B.S. in Life Sciences & Education, and I’ll also receive my teaching license for secondary science. TPS prepared me for nearly everything I encountered in college, and I wouldn’t be the teacher I already am without the influence and encouragement and investment of my TPS instructors. I’m so grateful to be able to pass on to my own students what my TPS instructors gave to me: a love for learning and a hope for future achievements.”

Emily A (alumnus)

“I am so grateful that TPS was an option for my family! Because of its flexibility, I am able to spend a lot of time with my baby sister. She was born the week my brother started school, three weeks before I started school! I have two brothers already, and I really wanted a sister. It has been significant to me and to my family that I can be involved in her life while also pursuing my academic progress. I have needed to adapt to the changes in schooling and in our home, such as by learning to create task lists and use a schedule for completing my work outside of the live TPS class sessions.”

Christina S (student)

“I love this class! It’s perfectly-paced and the teacher is awesome. I’ll admit, when I started TPS two years ago I pretty much hated math. But now I actually enjoy learning about it and figuring out how to solve problems! I would definitely recommend TPS Math!”

Emma S (student)

“TPS English has been a giant blessing for me. Not only is the environment safe, fun, and godly, but the curriculum and teaching style I have experienced makes the courses the most enjoyable and instructive classes I’ve ever taken. I used to earn consistently low grades in writing, but after just a couple short years I’m earning much higher scores on a weekly basis. Thank you TPS English!”

Gabriel B (student)

“I would recommend this class to others because these teachers know exactly what is on the ACT and SAT and they will keep going over those specific areas until you feel confident to do them independently. I also love that when we are struggling in a specific area the teachers will go over that specific area that you are struggling with until you understand, so that you will have no problem with it on the ACT or SAT.”

Francie H (student – SAT/ACT Prep)

“TPS has changed the way I look at math. I have taken three math courses with different teachers, and all of the teachers have been encouraging, fun, and very helpful! They employ memes, songs, and funny drawings to help me wrap my mind around hard concepts. Before TPS I struggled immensely with math, but now math is no longer my GPA nemesis!”

Carolyn C (student)

“This course taught me so much about economics while keeping me interested and excited. Great teacher. The projects throughout the semester were helped me see how the economy works. There is not a lot of work, but you learn so much information about a crucial subject.”

William P (student – Economics)

“My older sister took Bible Survey last year and was always raving about it to me, telling me how much she was learning and what a fabulous teacher she had. Because of her positive experience with it, my mom signed me up for the class. I can honestly say it has changed my life. The textbook used for this class offers interesting and easy-to-understand information about the Bible, and the teacher’s instruction makes Scripture come alive in an interesting and personal way. One of my favorite things about the class is how we don’t just learn about the Bible, we learn how it applies to us and how we can use what we learn to glorify God, love others, and become more mature in Christ.”

Sarah M (student – Bible Survey)

“I would recommend this course for anyone interested in counseling or anyone who desires to grow in their understanding of people (themselves included). This course not only gives you a window into the different areas of psychology and different disorders, but it also equips you with deeply biblical thoughts on counseling, psychology, and life in general.”

Chiara B (student – Psychology and Counseling from a Biblical Perspective)

“Excellent introduction to psychology that thoroughly examines the five common perspectives of psychology and applies them to different concepts discussed in the course; the additional research and assignments compliment and expand the psychology text well. Meanwhile, the Biblical comparison between certain psychological terms and ideas was insightful and built my faith. I was eager to take a psychology course, and this class exceeded my expectations. Now I am focusing my major in college on Psychology courses, perhaps pursuing a Psychology minor, and hoping to use psychology in my career. I would highly recommend this course if someone wants to pursue a career in psychology, or just desires a taste of the fascinating field.”

Abby J (student – College Psychology)

How does a TPS class work?

TPS provides fully interactive classrooms to students worldwide, even in remote locations with limited connectivity. Our live classes feature quality audio, chat, interactive presentations and a shared whiteboard for all participants. Students can interactively present content from their computer as well. Classes are recorded to allow for occasional missed class make-up.

TPS teachers provide frequent timely individual feedback for evaluation and improvement. Teachers are also available on a reasonable basis to provide help outside of class by email, office hours, group meeting, or an occasional individual meeting.

Students view class messages, track assignments, submit work, and view grades and feedback through an interface that allows them to manage all their courses in one place. Parents have a single interface to oversee assignments, grades and feedback for all their students and courses.

Upon completion of a course, all records remain accessible indefinitely, and parents can print homeschool grade reports, obtain signed grade reports or request accredited transcripts.

How do I get teacher approval for a course?
