Hello, I live in Houston Tx, and found some of your schools' courses via iTunes U. We have a 14yo high functioning autistic son who we homeschool and tailor his curriculum to his abilities. I am constantly searching for ways to increase his learning and found the work of St. Hilda's in iTunes U to be especially helpful. We have just begun with Simon Lee's Earth Science course and am looking at several of the other courses you make available. I just wanted to say Thank You and kudos to you and your team for making these courses available on iTunes for all, including kids like Peyton, to learn from. It means to alot to me. I know this takes special effort and special people with vision to pull this off. Please pass along to all who this concerns. And keep up the good work. Best Regards, Mark
thank you for listening!
