Teaching illiteracy | Robert Pondiscio

Описание: Robert Pondiscio, Senior Fellow at the American Enterprise Institute, joins us to discuss the rising demand for classical schools, the challenge of preparing teachers for this model, and why curriculum and cultural literacy remain central to student formation. In this episode, we discuss:
📖 How Pondiscio’s path from Bronx classroom teacher to policy scholar shaped his views
📖 Why cultural literacy matters for student opportunity
📖 The “Achilles’ heel” of classical education: finding and forming teachers
📖 How school choice and higher ed programs may shape the future of the movement
