The Hidden Force of a Charlotte Mason Education

A Charlotte Mason education is different and stands alone among the educational philosophies of the world. This may be due in large part to its not-so-apparent foundation of vitality, the peculiarity distinguishing the living from the non-living and the capacity to live and develop. Careful reading of her writings reveals the source of this vitality that keeps so many of us sharing and practicing the method our entire lives. Join me as we explore how our bodies, souls, and spirits are uniquely enriched by following a Mason education.
