The Truth About Teaching Kids to Read

In this episode of Virtue & Verse, we dive into one of the most important—and controversial—topics in education: how children actually learn to read. Jenny shares her personal journey navigating her child’s reading struggles, the process of getting a dyslexia diagnosis, and what finally worked. Along the way, we unpack the challenges many families face with reading instruction and the realities behind learning disabilities. We also tackle a big debate in education: direct instruction vs. project-based learning. Which approach truly helps kids succeed—especially those who are struggling? Whether you’re a parent, homeschooler, or educator, this conversation will challenge assumptions and offer practical insight into helping kids become confident readers. Topics covered: * Signs of dyslexia and getting a diagnosis * Homeschooling and reading struggles * Phonics and effective reading instruction * Education Savings Accounts (ESA) and resources * Direct instruction vs. project-based learning

How to Save Western Civilization

What does Western civilization have to do with a classical Christian school? In this episode of Virtue and Verse, Jenny and Hannah explore a bold but sincere conviction: that investing in our children’s classical Christian education is, in many ways, an act of cultural stewardship. Beginning with the question “What is the purpose of education?” they consider whether education is merely about career preparation—or about forming students who can inherit, understand, and faithfully carry forward a civilization. They discuss Western civilization not as a story of perfection, but as a tradition shaped by Scripture, reason, literature, philosophy, and centuries of wrestling with truth and human nature. At Redeemer, studying the West isn’t about nostalgia or nationalism—it’s about gratitude, discernment, and responsibility. If we have received an inheritance, are we preparing our children to understand it, critique it wisely, and build upon it? This conversation is thoughtful, hopeful, and grounded in the belief that education shapes not just individual lives—but the future of a culture.

episode What We Mean by “Christian Classical” artwork

What We Mean by “Christian Classical”

What do we really mean when we say classical Christian education—and why does it matter? In this episode of Virtue and Verse, Jenny and Hannah unpack the heart behind Redeemer Classical and explore the “why” driving their vision. They clarify what they mean by Christian—a Christ-centered, biblically faithful worldview rooted in the authority of Scripture—and what they mean by classical—an education shaped by the Trivium (grammar, logic, and rhetoric), the great books, and the pursuit of truth, goodness, and beauty. They also address common misconceptions: Is classical just Latin? Is it only for certain types of learners? Is it intimidating or inaccessible? Drawing from their own parenting journeys, they share how memorization, Scripture study, and character formation shape not only children’s minds, but their hearts. Whether you’re curious about classical education, hesitant because of past experiences, or looking for a more intentional approach to your child’s formation, this conversation offers clarity, encouragement, and a compelling vision for an education grounded in eternal truth.

episode Why Christian Classical Education, Why Now? artwork

Why Christian Classical Education, Why Now?

Welcome to the inaugural episode of Virtue and Verse, a podcast exploring Christian classical education, and the formation of children in a rapidly changing culture. In this debut conversation, co-hosts Jennie Clark and Hannah Woodruff introduce themselves, share their personal journeys through homeschooling, hybrid models, private education, and special education, and explain why they felt called to start this podcast now. Together, they reflect on: * The growing crisis in American education * The overwhelm many parents—especially mothers—feel when navigating school choices * Common misconceptions about classical education * Why beauty, goodness, and truth still matter in how we educate our children * How Christian classical and collaborative (hybrid) models can restore margin, meaning, and family life This episode also introduces Redeemer Classical, a new Christian classical collaborative launching in the fall, and the heart behind creating a space where parents can feel informed, encouraged, and never alone. Whether you’re homeschooling, considering a hybrid model, navigating learning differences, or simply asking better questions about education and formation, Virtue and Verse is a place to walk alongside others seeking wisdom, clarity, and hope. This is just the beginning.
