About the Founder's


John and Claudia Orgill have been homeschooling their children ever since their oldest daughter was four years old. They've enjoyed the experiences homeschooling has given their family and look forward to more experiences to come. They currently have four children ranging in the ages of eleven to four years old.

They are the founders and creators of HEV - a website providing online resources for Chrisitan homeschool families. Their video lessons have been used by hundreds of homeschool families and they are continually adding more wholesome content to their site. 

John was once a seminary teacher and enjoyed the experiences he had teaching students the Gospel. He enjoys continually learning new things and starting new businesses. He currently knows Spanish, Portuguese, and some Chinese and German. He loves to learn and has a great talent with teaching students, getting them to think, and inspiring them to make changes within themselves. He has spent 16 years training under a Sifu in the marital art of kung fu. He has earned his black belt in this art. He is currently working as a teacher at Merit Academy (which has proved to be so validating for choosing the homeschooling route!) and is currently training to become a Cisco certified network engineer.

Claudia loves to think outside the box and grew up questioning everything. She enjoys spending time in the kitchen making and selling all sorts of healthy and properly prepared delicious foods. She enjoys reading, painting, writing and being creative. She is a true entrepreneur at heart and loves to see kids become the people Heavenly Father wants them and needs them to become. She is currently looking to enroll in an online college in which she can receive a naturopathic doctor degree.

John and Claudia both love to teach and inspire students. They believe that Heavenly Father is in need of a different kind of people and that He needs more of his children to be spiritually strong, morally firm, clear thinking and adequately skilled.

They believe that there are great changes that will be taking place in our country and in society and these changes will require such steadfast, skillful and God-loving people to help make America the sacred and rightfully protected place God intended it to be - a place where future generations can raise their families in safety, in peace and in hopes of having a bright future.

They are excited about Glory Academy and are genuinely interested in helping homeschool students step up, do hard things, learn essential skills and become useful servants of God!
