A good place to start is by reading The Well-Trained Mind, written by Jessie Wise and Susan Wise Bauer (our company founder).
The Well-Trained Mind is a parent’s guide to a do-it-yourself, academically rigorous, comprehensive education - a classical education. This book describes classical education, provides guidance for each developmental stage, and shows how to supplement a student's education if they remain in school.
Well-Trained Mind Press sells curriculum based on the principles outlined in The Well-Trained Mind, which recommends curriculum and programs from many providers so you can find which works best for you.
Our products are available from the Well-Trained Mind Store. Each product page includes a product description, an extended sample, and options for purchasing in physical or digital format.

You can also check out our Curricula Recommendations Portal. It's a subscription service with unlimited access for $14.99 per year. You will find recommendations for every age, grade, and most subjects! Each recommendation has information about that program, how to purchase it, and what is needed to complete it. These are curated and approved by Susan Wise Bauer and our excellent editorial staff.
Our sister organization, Well-Trained Mind Academy, offers online classes for middle-school and older students.
You can also hire our consultants at Well-Trained Mind Learning Services if you want personalized and expert help for your specific situation.
Finally, you will find a wealth of information and helpful people on our community forums. Many participants have found help with specific situations, timely encouragement, and general camaraderie.
