Ambleside Internships

Read about Employment Opportunities

Ambleside is pleased to offer three-day internships for those seeking focused observation and practical instruction in an applied philosophy of education. Over 100 interns have participated in our program in the past four years.

Parents, teachers, and administrators who are interested in becoming equipped to apply Charlotte Mason's philosophy in teaching are invited to Fredericksburg, Texas, to observe classes at Ambleside School, study with Ambleside faculty, and meet with our families.

Interns engage in readings and discussion, observe and participate in classes, and receive individual direction and instruction in the following areas:

  • The practice of narration as a primary methodology in its various forms-whole class, individual, small group, student pairs, written and oral, picture study and nature study-and its variations according to students' abilities and grade levels, its use with living books and living things, and with particular subjects ranging from literature to mathematics.

  • The practice of recovering and enlisting the will of the student in the establishment of moral and intellectual habits in the study of both disciplinary and inspirational subjects.

  • The cultivation of a person-honoring atmosphere in the school's physical and relational environments.
