Because I'm the Teacher is a podcast about education, current issues in education, school choice, and anything else we feel passionate about. We are definitely amateurs and are hoping you will bear with us as we learn the ropes. We are both teachers and have over 10 years of experience between us. We want to bring to light some current issues and our first issue will discuss an overview of the current administrations first moves in education, why we don't find school choice to be as great as it sounds, and a few other things we hope you find interesting! Thanks for listening!
