Methods of Instruction
The New York Catholic Bible School combines academic knowledge with faith sharing to transform minds and hearts. This integrated learning experience involves both the head and the heart.
A variety of methods of instruction appropriate to adult learning are used:
- Weekly reading and reflection, including Scripture passages and biblical commentaries. Students can expect to spend approximately 3 hours per week.
- Communal prayer to begin each session
- Small group discussion of that week’s reflection questions
- Enrichment lecture from a professional instructor
- Trimester quizzes to evaluate and consolidate learning
The New York Catholic Bible School is directed by Ann Marie Wallace, PhD and Anne D. Malloy, MA, JD. All instructors have Masters' degrees in Scripture or a related field.
