Tyler, Founder of Faith Schooling

Who Is Behind Faith Schooling

Faith Schooling is written and published by Tyler, a Christian father and homeschool parent in Wisconsin. He is a full-time father, a homeschool educator, a farmer, and the founder of Faith Schooling. His background also includes Christian ministry and pastoral work, service in the U.S. Air Force, and previous work in healthcare and emergency medical services.

The strongest qualification behind this curriculum is not a title. It is that he teaches it. Faith Schooling was built around the actual education of his own daughter and is still used as a primary part of her daily homeschooling.

Why Faith Schooling Was Built

He could not find the kind of Christian education he wanted for his own child. There were Christian programs available, but many still leaned on screens, videos, cartoons, and entertainment, or read as conventional curriculum with Christianity added around the edges.

He wanted books on the table, pencils in children’s hands, and parents actively teaching. Scripture treated as truth rather than decoration. Strong academics without making a screen or an animated character the child’s primary teacher. And a curriculum that responded to what a child actually understood, instead of advancing because another week had passed.

So he began building it.

His Role in the Curriculum

Tyler develops the Faith Schooling curriculum system: the lesson structure, the scope and sequence, the teaching scripts parents read from, the practice, and the placement and mastery assessments. Because the material is taught at his own kitchen table before it is published, every lesson is held to a practical standard — it has to work when a real parent sits beside a real child and teaches.

A lesson cannot merely sound impressive in a curriculum description. The instructions have to make sense to the parent. The practice has to have a purpose. The assessment has to tell the parent what the child understands and what should happen next. And a child should be allowed to master a skill rather than be pushed forward because the calendar says it is time.

That is why Faith Schooling is parent-taught, print-focused, mastery-paced, and intentionally Christian. It now includes structured K–5 reading, phonics and language arts, handwriting, mathematics, assessment and placement tools, a printable practice library, and Bible and discipleship materials through the Apostolic Academy.

His Role in Editorial Approval

Tyler holds final approval for Faith Schooling’s instructional standards, doctrinal content, evidence claims, published comparisons, curriculum structure, and public factual claims. Where an outside source is needed, it is checked against the standards set out in the editorial policy before anything is published.

What His Background Does and Does Not Mean

Healthcare and emergency medical services required clear communication, careful observation, documentation, and decisions based on what was actually happening rather than what was assumed. Farming and full-time fatherhood brought a different kind of practical education into ordinary life: responsibility, problem solving, measurement, planning, reading, mathematics, science, and learning through real work. Christian ministry and pastoral experience inform the commitment to treating Scripture as foundational rather than decorative.

None of that is an academic credential, and it is not offered as one. It does not replace educational evidence or sound instructional practice. It explains the perspective Faith Schooling was built from: a parent personally responsible for educating his child, unwilling to hand that responsibility to a screen.

Is Faith Schooling a School?

No. Faith Schooling is an independent Christian K–5 curriculum publisher serving homeschool families, co-ops, microschools, Christian schools, churches, and other educators. It is not a brick-and-mortar school and there is no enrollment program. More about Faith Schooling.

Faith Schooling was developed where much of it is meant to be used: at the kitchen table, during ordinary family life, with a parent responsible for teaching the child sitting in front of them. The goal is straightforward — academically serious Christian education that parents can actually teach, children can genuinely learn from, and families can use without surrendering a child’s education to a screen.
