Online Classes

Welcome to the "landing page" for Living the Answer’s online classes! Founded in 2007, Living the Answer LLC offers a variety of classes for homeschool families. Ranging from philosophy and economics to essay writing and public speaking, the unifying theme in our classes is a desire to encourage students to love learning, to think well about difficult subjects, and to do it to the glory of God.

What parents have to say:

• "You motivated and inspired them more than any other teacher ever."
• "We feel very blessed to be able to pick and choose those classes and teachers that we know will inspire our kids, reinforce the God-centered view, and encourage their love for learning. You're at the top of that list. Keep up the great work!"
• "When we were talking about the academic workload, I asked her what in high school prepared her the best for the level that she's working at now. Her response? David Vogel, hands down."
• "He really, really enjoyed your first class and I loved it because he did it completely on his own without any input from me. It was one of the highlights of his last semester for both of us."
• "She really enjoys your class and finds your lectures interesting, entertaining, and informative. I would imagine that you often hear that you are a very inspiring teacher. If not, I'll just say that's the buzz among homeschool moms who hear that from their children."
