Heather Hall is a wife and mother. She and her husband have been blessed to raise (thus far) 10 children. Heather has homeschooled their children from the very beginning—continually learning as she teaches them. She has taught with an authentic Biblical Classical philosophy and method in her homeschool from the onset, giving her children a thoroughly Christian education. Currently, three of their children are graduated from their Biblical Classical homeschool. Their family is a second generation homeschool family.
Their oldest son is a Christian university graduate with a B.S. in Convergent Media and a Minor in Biblical Studies. He is married and co-owner of a landscape construction business. Their oldest daughter is a Christian university graduate with a B.A. in Christian Education (in elementary grades with a Biblical Classical focus). Their next daughter is considering her options and is currently writing a series of books for Christian youth. Currently, their second oldest son is a Biblical Classical homeschool high school graduate, has been apprenticed in Landscape Construction, and is co-owner of a landscape construction business with his older brother.
Heather has started and taught in a Biblical Classical homeschool co-op along side her husband for several years. Overall, her main focus has been teaching art with bible principles. She has also hosted and lead Biblical Classical book clubs and enjoyed Classic Literature Studies with its homeschool members.
