049: The Language of the Sciences: The Horizon Prep Math Teachers

The Horizon Prep Lioncast: Classical Education in San Diego and Rancho Santa Fe, California

Carly Cosentino and Andrea Needham join us to talk about the Math program in the Schools of Logic and Rhetoric.

Both Carly and Andrea have a love of math. Math was always Carly's favorite subject as a child. Andrea was inspired to love math by her high school math teacher who "made it come alive".

Andrea encouraged parents not to force their children through the math program faster than they can handle. She said that kids who rush through math "just to check a box" tend to have holes in their math knowledge that become obvious as they continue in higher math such as Physics or Chemistry.
