Kepler is a Marketplace for Live Online Classical Christian Classes
Combining the firm belief that parents are the primary educators with a strong desire to equip and support parents in their task, we exist to make a Classical Christian Education available, affordable, and accessible to everyone who wants one.
Available
What is called Classical Christian Education today used to simply be called a liberal arts education. But like many words in a dynamic language, liberal arts education doesn't mean what it used to. An historic liberal arts education was the education of the freeman who influenced and ruled society (thus, liberal from the Latin liberalis meaning free).
In a democratic society, such notions of elitism are frowned upon and education is reduced to job training and civic compliance, the education of an industrialized consumer/cog. Though democratic societies tend to strive toward the least common denominator so the masses can all have their fair share—i.e., a mile wide and an inch deep—a democratic society can also afford those who desire to do so, an opportunity to strive for something better. In a democratic society, organizations like Kepler Education can make what was once an elite education available to everyone who wants the education of a freeman.
Affordable
Given that Kepler is an online platform, a consortium of independent highly-qualified teachers, and not a school, our overhead is much lower than most schools or other academic institutions. We remove the bureaucracy and administrative costs and bring committed Classical Christian educators and families together. We make Classical Christian Education affordable by letting teachers to set their own prices and parents choose the right teachers and courses for their children. We are a marketplace for Classical Christian Education.

Any student with a reliable internet connection and well-functioning computer can access some of the best classical Christian educators in the world from anywhere in the world. One doesn't have to leave their state or their town to find a good education. One doesn't even have to leave the house. Kepler Education brings Classical Christian Education straight to your living room.
Core Values
Merely Christian
We embrace those essential, common, and core beliefs left by Christ and the Apostles to the church catholic, the body of Jesus Christ on Earth, held through the ages by all orthodox Christian traditions alike.
Broadly Classical
We engage students in the pursuit and acquisition of the liberal arts, that knowledge which is pleasurable for its own sake, and which frees the mind and prepares the soul to be wise and virtuous.
Historically Conservative
We teach students to recognize, value and delight in the permanent things and pursue necessary and healthy change according to the contours of the natural and created order.
