Statement of Faith
Schola Classical
Tutorials holds to the
Apostle's
Creed and the Nicene Creed (Eastern
version / Western
version) as basic summaries of the Christian faith. I am also
in essential agreement with the
major Reformational Protestant confessions. None of this is required
of students in Schola, but it should be expected that the teaching in Schola
will clearly reflect a historical and Classical Protestant Christian perspective.
About The Tutor
Wesley Callihan
grew up on a farm in Idaho and graduated in History from the University
of Idaho in 1983. He has taught at Logos
School, the University of Idaho, and New
St. Andrews College in Moscow, Idaho, and at Veritas
Academy in Lancaster, Pennsylvania. He has written curriculum
for several ACCS and
other Christian schools, has written some Great Books study guides for
homeschoolers (published by Veritas
Press), speaks regularly at Classical Christian education conferences
for home educators and private schools, and teaches summer
intensive Latin courses. He has written columns
and short fiction for Credenda/Agenda
and Antithesis,
and contributed to the book Classical Education and the Home School,
(published by Canon
Press). Schola Classical Tutorials, a program of live internet courses
in the Great Books and the Classical Languages, began in the fall of 1997
and is his contribution to the growing classical Christian education movement.
Wes and his wife,
Dani, have six children, from 24 down to 10 years of age. They live
in an old farmhouse in northern Idaho near Wes's parents, where they all
use the cold winters as an excuse to read, and the hot summers as another
excuse to read. They are members of Christ
Church in Moscow.
