Course Summary

Have you ever wanted to visit the Smoky Mountains or Gatlinburg National Park? Come explore with us! Video and picture compilations include famous sights such as Cumberland Falls, Look Rock, Norris Dam and Cades Cove. Learn about native wildlife such as snakes, bears and fireflies. Narrated videos will include information about the sights from parks signage plaques. See how people once lived as we walk through preserved cabins. Enjoy breathtaking views of rock formations and mountain caves. I also include bonus YouTube videos relevant to our topic of the week.   Even though this course has a flexible schedule, students are still able to interact with the teacher and other students. Students will be encouraged to participate by answering questions from the videos and submitting answers. Each week we will have a video scavenger hunt! Students are challenged to find videos pertaining to the topic of the week and share the link with the class. If they answer all of the questions, the full puzzle will be revealed by the end of the course. Students are able to also ask / answer questions on the classroom page. Video lessons include footage with my family as we travel and visit famous sites.

Elizabeth McMann

As a homeschooling mother of five, I felt led by the Lord to create an online educational platform. My style of learning didn't fit into the mold of what was out there. Not to mention, the rising prices of other educational platforms limited what classes my children could enjoy. Sifting through online classes and full curriculum that aligns with Christian values is tricky. Today, it seems most Christian curriculum is boring bookwork and/or very costly. I sought to combine everything that I value in education. Teach Me Truth provides entertaining video lessons, live online classes, online games, quizzes, worksheets, and community - all designed by independent teachers within our nonprofit platform.
