Why does classical education awaken something in students and teachers that modern schooling often suppresses?

In this episode of The Liberty Show, Dr. Christopher Perrin—author, educator, and leading voice in the classical renewal movement—explores why education must recover delight, rest, contemplation, and wonder if we want students to flourish.

Dr. Perrin explains how classical education forms the whole person by giving students:
A human education, not a mechanized one
Time to slow down, reflect, and enjoy learning
Teachers who model curiosity, humility, and joy
A sense of identity and belonging in a community of virtue
A vision for what is true, good, and beautiful
This conversation goes beyond curriculum.
It’s about formation, not information.
It’s about restoring the love of learning and cultivating the kind of human beings our world desperately needs.
