κλέος ἄφθιτον
“undying glory” — the works worth remembering.
Kleos Classics teaches the great books the way they reward being taught — slowly, out loud, and in good company — so students don't just cover them, but carry them for life.
What we're about
Most courses race through the canon and leave students with a list of titles they can't remember reading. We'd rather do one great book well — and have it stay with a student for the rest of their life.
A manageable amount each week, read closely and aloud, instead of a flood no one retains. Depth over coverage, always.
Small cohorts around a shared text. Students defend a reading, hear another, and change their minds out loud — the oldest and best way to learn.
Every seminar is led by someone who genuinely loves the book and loves teenagers — not a script, not a video, not a worksheet mill.
The courses
One seminar at a time, each built around a single great work. More are on the way — reach out below to hear when they open.
Homer's Iliad · one book a week
A year with the first and greatest of epics, read in full across two terms. Fall reads Books 1–12; Spring finishes the poem. Tuesday and Thursday sections, grades 7–12.
View the course →Homer's Odyssey
The long way home — cunning, monsters, and a father and son finding each other again. The natural companion to the Iliad.
Coming soonBeowulf
The Old English epic of monsters, gold, and mortality — read for its thunder and its grief, with a teacher who reads it in the original.
Coming soonShakespeare, the Greek tragedies, and beyond
New seminars are added as they're ready — always one great work at a time, always read slowly. Tell us what you'd want your student to read.
Coming soonWho's teaching
Brady Nash holds a degree in Economics and has spent recent years in independent study of ancient languages and mythology — reading Homer in Greek alongside the wider epic tradition in Old English and Old Norse. He also brings years of experience teaching and coaching young people, including in classical education, and he loves nothing more than watching a teenager discover why these old books still hit.
Stay in the loop
No spam — just a note when the next seminar is ready to enroll, once or twice a year.
