For some time now, classical educators across the country have found the techniques compiled in Teach Like a Champion 2.0 by Doug Lemov to be beneficial for growing in the craft of teaching. And for good reason! This data-informed field guide, which emerged out of the charter school movement, is filled with insight for teachers who want to cultivate high-performing classrooms and provide a rigorous education for their students.
At the same time, not a small number of classical educators have developed a healthy skepticism regarding whether this book rightfully belongs in their school libraries. After all, isn’t Teach Like a Champion 2.0 based largely on modernist assumptions about the nature and purpose of education? Will adopting the techniques it contains water down the purity of the efforts of those who would seek to offer a truly classical education?
