Greetings,
I vividly remember the college semester when I took my
first human anatomy and physiology class. While I've had an
interest in the human body since I was eleven or twelve
years-old, it was during this college semester that I first
began to understand the incredible complexity of the human body.
I actually remember devouring the chapters in my anatomy and
physiology textbook, amazed at what I was reading.
Today, I enjoy seeing that "light" come on in the minds of my
university and homeschool students. Recently, the mother of one
of anatomy and physiology students told me:
"John (not his real name) didn't want to take this class -
he had no interest in studying the body. After three weeks in
your class he's talking about the possibility of a career in
medicine or some field related to the body. He loves your class,
can't wait for it every week, and always comes away with
excitement, anxious to tell us about what he's learned."
The Lord has given me a passion for teaching students
about the human body and how this complex creation of His
testifies to His glory. For example, I love teaching about the
pancreas, the microscopic precision with which it operates, and
how many small steps have to go just right every second of every
day just for us to live.. not to mention the kidneys, heart,
brain, liver, and a "simple" movement of the finger, driven by
the "simple" contraction of a muscle.
My residential camps are geared toward college-bound students
but are appropriate for all students who are interested in the
human body. This "Human Anatomy and Physiology" is an experience
that few students have access to at this level.
We offer online classes
and residential camps that are appropriate for all 6th -12th
grade students, but are especially geared toward students
interested in careers such as medicine, forensic anatomy /
pathology CSI, nursing, exercise science, biology, chemistry,
dentistry, athletic training, nutrition, health promotion,
physical therapy, physician's assistant, occupational therapy,
etc. Also, it's been my experience that the information and
experience offered in our classes and camps often sparks an
interest in students that was previously undiscovered.
Questions? Please don't hesitate to contact me.
