Beautiful Teaching: Classical Education Courses for Parents and Classroom Teachers

Join married teachers, Jonathan & Kiernan Fiore, for a journey through their mutual favorite novel to teach high school students: Jane Austen's Pride & Prejudice. We'll study the novel as teachers to see how studying it helps students to learn to read classics, helps teachers to teach great literature, and helps everyone gain a more keen insight into human nature.  This class is for teachers, parents, and all curious readers who want to grow as educators and as human beings.

The Ignatius Critical Edition is recommended, but not required, and will be referred to during the session. Participants can find a free copy on Gutenberg.

Dates & Time: Wednesdays, September 25th - October 30th from 5:30 - 6:30 p.m. CENTRAL TIME

Recorded: All courses are recorded and available 48-72 hours after the course and will be available for 1 month. You will be sent a YouTube link.
