About this episode

Dr. Riley discusses the benefits of classical education with a classical school teacher.

Today, parents have an array of K-12 schooling options for their student. Public, private, traditional, homeschool, online, charter, parochial, and more. In this episode, Dr. Riley (from collegeapp101.com) interviews a classical school teacher, who also attended a classical high school and liberal arts/great books college. The classical model is an outstanding option for parents, who are interested in developing and sustaining their student’s (1) sense of virtue and (2) wonder in the classroom.
