Customer Reviews
Very entertaining
I love this podcast! They are very entertaining and the daily post gives me one more thing to look forward to during this strange time. Definitely recommend!
Great perspective from educators
Cate and Jen have a great rapport. Their conversation flows very well and is real. I enjoy listening to their perspective on not only education but surviving through this pandemic.
Real & Raw
Cate & Jen tell the story of being quarntined from their perspective and invite guests to share as well. I loved hearing ideas for educating at home as well as survining in a very isolating time. This is great for parents and teachers as well as anyone who cares about education in a time like no other.
