028 – S1 E27 – How might we help students realize their interests and gifts as the priority of education?

homeroom is an international podcast bridging the education gap between the classroom and the living room by starting conversations impacting the next generation. In this episode, I speak with Marwa, a professor and doctor of implant dentistry, and fellow English teacher about the impact that teachers have on their students, and how the best ones change lives. We talk about the personas we’ve developed to help us grow new skills and interests, as well as the teachers who’ve made positive influences in our lives. We also discuss the one trait that all good teachers have, and how that can make all the difference.
