Teacher meets teacher

Now I'm Grown Up

It’s not a stretch to say that an inspirational teacher can really change your life. 

Broadcaster and author Jenni Murray explores the life-long importance of this student-teacher bond with one particular former student and his teacher. Bobby Seagull, an investment banker-turned-maths teacher, author, and TV presenter, joins Jenni alongside Nick Christie — or Mr Christie — his maths teacher from secondary school, to talk about the impact a teacher can have long beyond our school days.

Now I'm Grown Up is hosted by Jenni Murray, produced by Antonia Cundy and Theodora Louloudis, and brought to you by Now Teach. The credits for this episode were read by Livvie Podbur.
