RRR64: Challenges and Joys of Homeschooling with Susan Wise Bauer

In this inspiring conversation, we sit down with Susan Wise Bauer, historian, author, educator, and co-creator of The Well-Trained Mind: A Guide to Classical Education at Home. Susan shares the story behind the book and offers practical wisdom for parents and educators seeking a more thoughtful, structured approach to learning. We explore:what classical education really means—and why it matters now more than ever, the stages of the Trivium: grammar, logic, and rhetoric; how to nurture curiosity, critical thinking, and a lifelong love of learning. We also highlight the challenges and joys of homeschooling in today's world and Susan shares her personal reflections as a homeschool graduate, parent, and educator.
