The Nomadic Professor
This is history like you've never seen before! The Nomadic Professor history curricula stands out with its on-location video lectures filmed worldwide by globetrotting historian Dr. William Jackson, bringing historical settings to life, and complemented by over 2,000 pages of text (also available in audio format), guided notes, quizzes, flashcards, and document-based lessons. The curriculum is a dynamic, interdisciplinary online program designed for high school students, offering a fresh alternative to traditional textbooks and courses. Created by Dr. Jackson, with scaffolding produced by experienced high school teacher Nate Noorlander, the program spans four semester-long courses covering pre-Columbian times to the early 21st century. Beyond rote memorization, it emphasizes critical thinking and historical literacy, teaching students to evaluate primary and secondary sources, analyze biases, and construct research-based arguments. The courses integrate skills like rhetoric, logic, American literature, and college writing, earning students credits in multiple disciplines. It’s flexible, offering standard high school tracks or advanced options for AP and CLEP preparation, with customizable pacing and robust instructor support tools. The curriculum strives to avoid ideological slant, presenting multiple perspectives to foster independent judgment, making it ideal for homeschoolers seeking a non-partisan, engaging, and rigorous program. With ongoing updates and a holistic approach—blending history with humanities—it equips students with both knowledge and analytical tools, preparing them for academic success and informed citizenship.
WonderWell Learning
WonderWell Learning is live, online classes that bring real teachers into your homeschool week. Your child sits down, sees a real teacher on screen, and gets to ask questions and be known by name, not just watch a pre-recorded lesson alone. We teach art, science, and language arts (and more) with wonder, rigor, and faith woven through every lesson. Your child won't just watch. They'll sketch, test, discover, and create something worth showing off. Founded by a homeschool mom who built this for her own kids first, WonderWell is small by design and rooted in what matters.
