Jeremy S. Adams has been teaching AP Political Science in Bakersfield, California, for the past 25 years. When he noticed his students needed inspiration, connection, and positive role models, he was motivated to author the book Lessons in Liberty: Thirty Lessons in Life From Ten Extraordinary Americans.

At The Classical Academies Partnering With Parents, we believe a child's education is a shared journey. This isn't about delivering lectures from experts to an audience; it's a conversation built on real experience. Each episode draws from the collective wisdom of our hosts-educators and homeschooling parents who are in the trenches themselves-to explore what it truly means to guide a young learner. You'll hear specific, actionable strategies for creating a rich learning environment at home, alongside candid stories about the challenges and triumphs of taking an active role. The aim is to move beyond theory into the practical realities of teaching, whether you are fully homeschooling or seeking to better support your child within a traditional school setting. Tune in for a thoughtful discussion that reframes education as a collaborative effort, offering reassurance and concrete ideas to help you cultivate curiosity and confidence in your role. This podcast from The Classical Academies serves as a steady resource for anyone committed to being a foundational part of their child's academic and personal growth.
