Going to School: The Podcast

education, society, culture · EN

Every educator has a story — the mentor who saw something in them, the hard year that taught them who they were, the turning point that made them who they are. On Going to School, veteran Wisconsin superintendent Jim Sebert sits down with the teachers, principals, and leaders behind the profession and traces those stories back to their source. Each conversation is a warm, unhurried look at the human beings who do this work, and every episode closes the same way: with two questions — one about what they wish more people understood about education, and one about the person who shaped them that they never properly thanked. New episodes once a month. Jim is also the author of the memoir Going to School: A Life in Education.
