Description
In 2021, we put together a list of Lutheran teachers & tutors who offer resources specifically for Lutheran homeschoolers. As teachers start marketing their services again, we are making a more general list of Lutheran teachers & tutors on the off-chance the parent volunteers of LutheranHomeschool.com miss any advertisements.
These teachers may offer regular classes, tutoring, educational counseling, etc.
The PDF product consists of names and contact information. Once purchased, you can simply check your available downloads for updates.
If you learn that any of the following are no longer offering help, just let us know and we will remove them from the list. Thanks!

Jessica Wood: Greek, Latin, Spanish, World History
Salve! My name is Jessica Wood, and I’ve just graduated from Hillsdale College with a B.A. in Latin and minors in Greek and Spanish. While at college, I was the president of the Eta Sigma Phi, the Classical Studies Honorary, and I won the Sienkewicz Latin Declamation Contest at the Eta Sigma Phi national convention during my senior year. In the fall, I’ll be pursuing my M.A.T. in Latin and Classical Humanities at the University of Massachusetts Amherst. Currently, I’m tutoring three students in Latin, and I’m looking to add a few more over the summer. In addition to Latin, Greek, and Spanish, I can help with literature and world history, particularly Classical History.

Art Camp in a Box
Pure Joy Creative offers Art Camp in a Box!
How it works:
I will send you a box of supplies needed to complete this year’s art camp projects. There will also be a list of basic materials like scissors and glue emailed to you to gather before camp begins. Each lesson will include a video, and there will be a facebook group where you can share projects and ask questions. The videos will remain available through the end of 2021, so you will have plenty of time to complete the camp!
Boxes will ship at the end of June and videos will be on YouTube by the middle of July.
This year I am offering two boxes, based on grade level:
- Level 1 – Grades K-4
- Level 2 – Grades 5 and up
If you have any questions about the grade levels, feel free to ask! For families with multiple children, you will need a box for each child but I can provide additional information if needed to help you decide which boxes to order!

A sharp mind, a virtuous character, and a strong body: this is what it took to be a Citizen of Rome, or Athens, or Sparta. And these are still the goals every young man should strive for in our Republic.
[T]his Trinity Term for Citizenship, Fitness, and Strength Training, read stories of adventure and daring from history, learn about the armies and battles of the ancient world, ponder philosophy, and plot our own goals for fitness and strength. And then we will achieve them.
