Our Homeschool Courses for Teens
Helping homeschoolers build the clarity, confidence, and real-world skills they need for college, career, and life.
High school is a powerful season for developing life-skills. Our courses strengthen judgment, independence, and decision-making — so teens feel equipped for whatever comes next.
Next Live batch starts on 20th Jan 2026
Skills That Shape Every Future
Teens today face big choices – about school, career, money, relationships, and life direction. Yet traditional education rarely teaches them how to think clearly, make sound decisions, or understand how the real world works.
Our courses give teens the tools to:
✔ See the world with clarity
✔ Understand economics, strategy, and decision-making
✔ Build confidence and independence
✔ Navigate adulthood with purpose
✔ Take real action in the real world
Life Skills Courses
Our Life Skills courses are built on the backbone of Economics. Why? Because Economics is a powerful lens through which to see our world. These dynamic courses help students weigh options, clarify goals, manage themselves (and others), negotiate, collaborate, and make strategic decisions to build the life they want.

Frequently Asked Questions
Are students graded?
We offer both graded and ungraded versions of our courses. See individual courses for more information on what is included in a graded course.
Are your courses accredited?
Our courses are not accredited by any institution. However, they are created by experienced educators and professionals who know their subjects deeply and care about teaching them well. Each course is held to high academic standards—comparable to what you’d expect in a strong high school or college-level class. We offer a certificate of completion at the end of our graded courses.
How long will I have access to course materials?
One year from date of payment.
Do you have a refund policy?
Yes! We offer full refund within 15 days of purchase if you are not satisfied with your purchase. Reach out to us via our contact page to request a refund.
Are there pre-requisites?
None of our courses require pre-requisites, but are designed for high school students.
What happens if a Live Online course doesn’t meet the minimum enrollment?
If fewer than six students enroll in a Live Online course, LOCAJ may cancel the course. In that case, families will receive a full refund. As an alternative, we also offer On Your Own – Graded versions of our courses, which may be a great fit if you’d still like your student to complete the material independently.
How long do the academic journeys take to complete?
We have courses ranging from four weeks to sixteens week to complete. This will vary student-to-student, and our “On Your Own” courses are completed by the student at their own pace.
How challenging are the courses?
The questions and assignments tend to not be too difficult, but the course content itself is reasonably high-level. We don’t underestimate our students’ abilities to dig-in and learn concepts that will stretch their minds and yield high-results. These aren’t courses for wimps – they are for the curious and the passionate. 🙂
What modalities do you offer?
We call them “academic journeys”, and all courses are available in the On Your Own – Graded and On Your Own – Ungraded. Select courses are also offered Live Online – Graded, with weekly online meetings.
How do I receive course access?
Once you complete your purchase, you will be emailed a link to create a Pathwright account (where you will take your course). Be sure to check your spam if you don’t see it. We’re here to help! If something goes wrong, contact us here and we will respond within 24 hours.
If there are questions about the course material itself, you can address them to your course instructor within the course paths themselves!

What Students Say About Us.
Savannah – LOCAJ Student
“I’ve been taking online courses for three years now. There’s nothing else out there like Lines On Clay classes. I feel ready for my life now.”
Ross – LOCAJ Student
“If all my classes had been like this, I would have actually learned something while in school. I’m glad my mom found Lines On Clay.”
Jim – College Student
“Professor Zingg is the best teacher I have ever had. If I worked on faculty, I would have professors sit in his classes or go to him for training as to how a lecture should go.”
Andrea – English Teacher
“The school system needs more classes like these! LOCAJ courses are engaging for the students, with content the students can actually relate to!”
