The Approach

No worksheets. No test prep drills. No endless lecturing.

why it works

The Socratic Method

By asking the right questions, students learn to find their own answers and build thought-out, logical arguments.

what we read

Great Books

We read classics because they speak to universal human truths that teenagers are naturally wrestling with.

what changes

Personal Relevance

Books they thought were boring become mirrors for aspects of their own lives.

About Me

Nadav Sternheim

I am a senior at Clemson University studying mathematics and philosophy. I am also a member of the Lyceum Scholars program, where I study the moral, political, and economic foundations of a free society using the Great Books tradition.

I love reading works from classical antiquity and American literature, though my interests extend across many genres. Among my favorite authors are John Steinbeck, Fyodor Dostoevsky, and Homer.

In my free time, I love reading, watching movies, skiing, surfing, and backpacking.
