What is Socratic Seminar?
Socratic Seminar has a variety of meanings in different contexts, but for me, the essence of this offering is an exploration of life’s deepest questions through philosophical inquiry, dialogue, and personal reflection. Sessions are grounded in a text or piece of media, but the real content is your own authentic engagement with questions, topics, and issues that matter, that enable you to discover your own answers. Intellectually rigorous yet deeply personal, Socratic Seminar is all about honing your ability to think for yourself.

Co-Create a Custom Course
Have you ever wanted to learn about a new topic or explore a philosophical issue? Based on your learning goals and needs, we will co-create a custom humanities course for one-on-one or small group sessions. We develop clear learning objectives, compelling essential questions, and a rigorous and engaging reading list. Then, we dive in together, striving to understand the texts, analyze the key ideas, explore deep questions, and apply the themes to our lives and the world at large. Perfect for homeschoolers, autodidacts, and life-long passionate learners.
