I have a BA in Philosophy with minors in Political Science and Greek and Roman Studies, as well as an MA in Philosophy with a concentration in Ethics and Political Philosophy. I’m the head coach of a competitive high school debate team and teach the liberal arts at a classical school. I’m also a professional creative writer and journalist. I love helping students of all ages understand and interpret difficult subjects and learn how to crystallize their thoughts in writing and oral communication. I believe studying classic texts is a wonderful way to facilitate this kind of growth and learning.

It is ideal that students have similar editions, or at least the same translation, as each other and the instructor. Let me know if you have trouble finding them. Below are the editions we will be using for this course: The Epic of Gilgamesh. Translated by NK Sandars. London: Penguin Classics, 1972. Tennyson, Alfred Lord. Idylls of the King. Edited by JM Gray. New York: Penguin Classics, 1996.
Please note that this course will explore a variety of potentially difficult topics, ideas, and events from divergent perspectives. It is the responsibility of the parent or guardian to review the syllabus in order to determine if they wish their child to analyze and discuss this content. I’m happy to answer any questions you may have.
