In an article for the CiRCE Institute website, entitled “What Classical Education Is Not”, Jeremy Wagner wrote, “Classical educators are characterized by a resolve to act with due respect for the natural properties of things…When the master teacher sets to work, like a craftsman sitting down at his workbench, he does not fail to take into account the nature of the child, the nature of the art being taught, and the nature and form of learning itself.

“Although all created things have a nature and a purpose, some natural properties are obvious while others are less so. The properties of some things, such as eleven-year-olds, are an inexhaustible mystery. Hence the need to draw upon a tradition that is millennia old.”
