About The Role Run live online sessions with two students, aged 10 and 11, Monday to Friday on US hours. Teach students to read a difficult passage and work out what the author is actually saying, including what is implied and what is left out. Build the habit of questioning a claim, testing an argument, and spotting weak reasoning.
Introduce
Stoic philosophy in a form a child can use, and connect it to how they handle setbacks, focus, and their own reactions. Choose age-appropriate texts and build a progression across the term rather than teaching one-off lessons. Give direct, specific feedback in a way that keeps a child willing to be wrong out loud. Document student progress and ensure students complete their daily reflections in our student dashboard. Use and help integrate AI tools into lesson preparation and teaching.
