About the Guest
Benjamin Lyda
has been head of a classical charter high school and founder of a Charlotte Mason inspired K-12 school. His more than 20 years of teaching experience is wide and varied including teaching in urban and suburban settings. In addition Benjamin regularly works with both advanced and struggling students in public, private, and homeschool settings. He founded and ran The Children’s Shakespeare Academy, directing full productions of the bard’s plays for homeschool children 9-18. He holds a Master of Humanities degree from The University of Dallas and is certified by the state of Texas to teach 6-12 grade literature, history, speech communication, special education, and debate. He is the author of Scriptorium: Writing with the Progymnasmata, a 3rd-8th grade curriculum. He is married to his high school sweetheart and together they are bringing up six children.

Show Notes
Benjamin explains the ways in which modern approaches to writing hinder students from experiencing the joy and art of becoming a good writer. He shares his experience as a writing instructor and how the progymnasmata shines as a really great method for truly helping students learn and enjoy the craft of virtue-based writing.

He was a previous podcast guest with his daughter, Eden. Children Delighting in Shakespeare aired in season 1.
