Taught by Great Hearts Educators
Virtualis students are taught by classically trained faculty provided through our partnership with Great Hearts Online, one of the most respected names in classical education in America. Every Virtualis instructor is formed in the liberal arts tradition and committed to the intellectual and moral formation of each student.
This partnership means our families receive the same rigorous, Socratic instruction that has defined Great Hearts academies for over two decades — delivered live, online, and with personal attention.
What Defines Our Faculty
Every Virtualis educator shares these commitments.
Socratic Method
Rather than lecturing, our teachers pose careful questions that draw students into genuine discovery and shared inquiry.
Classical Training
Our teachers are formed in the liberal arts tradition, understanding subjects as interconnected dimensions of a unified search for truth.
Mentorship
Each teacher sees their role as that of a mentor — accompanying students on their intellectual and moral journey with patience and care.
Love of Learning
Our faculty model a genuine love of the liberal arts, demonstrating that education is not about grades but about the pursuit of wisdom and beauty.
Character Formation
Classical education forms the whole person. Our teachers cultivate virtue — courage, temperance, justice, and prudence — alongside knowledge.
Live Instruction
Every class is taught live by a real teacher — not pre-recorded. Students engage in real-time discussion, questions, and collaborative learning.
Our Partnership with Great Hearts
Virtualis partners with Great Hearts Online to deliver a classical liberal arts education of the highest caliber. Great Hearts is one of the largest and most acclaimed classical education networks in the country, operating 47 schools across three states.
Through this partnership, Virtualis families benefit from a faculty that has been recruited, trained, and mentored in the Great Hearts tradition — educators who understand that the purpose of education is the formation of wise, virtuous, and thoughtful human beings.
Jamee Twardeck leads the Great Hearts Online National Academy program, bringing years of classical education leadership to the partnership. Under her guidance, the online program maintains the same standards of excellence that define Great Hearts brick-and-mortar academies.
