Thelma English
Thelma English began teaching her two sons at home in the 80s, later pursuing Exegetical Theology at Western Seminary in Portland. She wrote her own curriculum and, since retiring from teaching home schoolers, offers it free to home educators. Her favorite study is literature, primarily the Bible, but also theology, classical studies, English, and American literature studies, and Shakespeare. Her perspective is always theological. To her knowledge, no college or university has denied credit for any of her classes as of 2022.
