The Teaching Company has many great resources over a wide range of subjects. Most courses are available as MP3s with many of them are also available on DVD. Almost everything on TTC is pay-for (e.g. these are not free lectures) and so they should be since TTC hire the best people and best presenters in their respective fields to do the the lectures, and the quality and content is excellent (although I occasionally disagree with the content).

TTC also have a number of courses that are suitable for high-school level homeschooling such as:

  • Geometry
  • Chemistry
  • History
  • Algebra
  • Basic Math

My biggest gripe is that we cannot afford the DVD courses as they are quite expensive (even with their frequent sale offers). The New Zealand dollar may be better now than most times, but times are also tough for many of us, and we have to pay postage to get the DVDs delivered.

I would really like another DVD course from TTC — Nutrition Made Clear. This course looks really good and would help us as a family and also possibly lead our children on into Food Technology or similar training post home schooling. If TTC want to donate a copy to us, we will say YES PLEASE!!! At the sale price, the 6 DVD set would costs us about $200NZD (almost the price of a new iPod nano).
