from Disrupt Education Podcast · host Disrupt Education Podcast
In the next episode of the Disrupt Education Podcast, cohosts Peter Hostrawser and Alli Privitt dive deep into the foundations of Disrupt Education by engaging in a conversation with recent high school graduate Patrick Kowalczyk. They explore Patrick's unique experiences and perspectives on learning within the school system. Patrick shares his initial struggles as a "check boxer" during his high school years, where he avoided taking risks and lacked accountability for his own education. However, a transformative shift occurred during his junior year when he broke out of his shell. He discovered the power of public speaking, business, and physical therapy, which compelled him to embrace risks, find his voice, and take responsibility for his own learning. Additionally, Patrick attributes a significant portion of his learning journey to his employment at an assisted living home, where he gained invaluable wisdom from both the residents and staff.
