Testimonials

Marie MacPherson is an exceptional educator whose passion makes the material engaging, and her calm, kind demeanor has encouraged my son to enjoy and actively participate in class. Most importantly, her instruction is firmly rooted in Scripture and our Lutheran faith. We are blessed to have found Marie and could not have asked for a better experience.

—Natalie, Georgia

One would be hard pressed to find someone who understands classical Christian education better than Dr. Ryan MacPherson and his wife Marie. He is a highly respected scholar and they are both firmly grounded in a biblical worldview. I highly recommend their Lifelong Lyceum courses.
