Charlotte Mason is an 18th-century educator who believes that education should be liberal for all and that parents play a significant role in educating their children. She believed that children are born persons with capabilities necessary to acquire all appropriate knowledge for themselves by feasting on ideas; thus, they are not empty vessels that teachers are to fill knowledge with. Education is an atmosphere (the natural atmosphere in our homes directly affect our children’s education), a discipline (the formation of good habits through intentional training) and life (learning should be living, through living books and not just the presentation of dry facts) became the parent’s motto in her schools. Students are taught to memorize “I am, I can, I ought, I will” as their motto.
