Great Hearts America - Job Training Program
Great Hearts Academies is the leading provider of classical education in the country. We are dedicated to serving families in the moral and intellectual formation of their children. Through the SkillBridge Program, we hope to provide on the job training in the craft of teaching, specifically the Socratic Method. This style of learning is a dialogue between individuals, where our students ask and answer questions to stimulate critical thinking and draw out underlying presumptions. The Socratic method is of course not unique to Great Hearts; it is a bulwark of classical learning. The Socratic Method protects the natural desire to know all children share. Teaching and learning continue throughout a student’s lifetime, so we seek to inspire each child through the lasting influence of excellent teachers. Teachers lead students through intelligence, charisma, humor, moral integrity and example—in short, through love and friendship. Ultimately, our teachers strive to cultivate the minds and hearts of students in the wonder-filled pursuit of truth, beauty and goodness. Participants in the SkillBridge program will be immersed in this culture of learning and wonder, in the hope they will be prepared to join us as a full-time faculty at the end of their program's tenure.
