Hello, I'm Merrie Lynn Eaker, and I've dedicated 27 years to homeschooling my children. Even now, I'm still deeply involved in my freshman's and junior's education. Alongside homeschooling, I also share my passion for history, language arts, writing, and grammar as a tutor on Tutor.com and Tutors.com. My mission is simple: to help students express themselves effectively in both written and spoken English and to recognize the hand of God in past human events. With a Bachelor of Science degree from Liberty University, where I studied English and Religion, I bring a solid academic and Christian foundation to my teaching. Whether it's guiding homeschool lessons or mentoring students online, I'm driven by a deep-seated passion for nurturing language skills. My approach blends patience, creativity, and dedication, aiming to instill in students not just knowledge, but a genuine love for language, history, and communication. Join me on this journey of discovery and mastery, where together, we unlock the full potential of your student to articulate themselves eloquently and confidently. |
