In this episode I have a conversation with Julie Ross, founder of A Gentle Feast. We discuss the different ideas of teaching reading (AKA "The Reading Wars"), the pros and cons of each, and the research on reading. We also discuss why Charlotte Mason's method of teaching reading was so ingenious and effective!

Julie has been teaching for almost two decades in various educational settings including public elementary school, private Christian school, and a university model homeschool academy. She was the co-founder of two of those schools utilizing my expertise in curriculum and organizational leadership. She created the scopes and sequences for these schools and created my own original curriculum for several classes. She has a B.S. in Elementary Education from Penn State University. She created A Gentle Feast because that’s what she wished she had when she first began homeschooling her children.

When she’s not busy homeschooling, doing laundry, or reading, she can be found painting Goodwill furniture or buying more books on Amazon.
