My name is Gina and I told my husband I wanted to do a podcast. Matt said you write it and I will produce it. And after throwing many, many ideas at him, including but not limited to: game shows, drinking games, and talk shows, he asked me this: "Why don't you go back to your idea of doing a teacher podcast? That's something you are actually passionate about." And he was right.
As English teachers teaching in L.A., we have our fair share of experiences in the educational field. Between the two of us, we have over ten years of experience, having taught full time in four schools; experience in charter schools, private schools, public schools, and university. We've coached, put on plays, been a lead teacher, been the department's district representative, worked with tech, been on decision-making councils, worked with the local teacher union, substitute taught, long-term subbed, and worked AV.
With a masters degree in educational technology to help me with the middle schoolers, and Matt's ability to be thrown into just about any job on his high school campus, we want to share our experiences, insight, opinions, and journey in this teacher podcast, exploring all things education.
