I Teach, Therefore...

“I Teach, Therefore…” is a podcast that believes in elevating teachers, and therefore the teaching profession, by letting teachers be the narrators of their own stories. Educators wear many hats on a daily basis -many of which go unseen, and are not typically associated with the work done inside the classroom! So, what do teachers really do? They’re about to tell you.

    Myca Lopez - teacher, unlearner, Ep 6

    Myca Lopez is a founding Special Education Lead Teacher at The Gathering Place in San Antonio, Texas. In this episode, we get to follow up with Myca after our previous conversation on Miss Education to hear more about her experiences as a founding member of a new school! Even though she wears many hats - SPED teacher, founding school member, teacher advocate, and mother - our conversation revolves so much around the 'heart-work' that encompasses her 'unlearning' as she grows as an educator and human being.

    Lisa Barry is a 5th grade teacher in San Antonio, Texas and nominee for 2019-2020 Texas Teacher of the year! In this episode, we discuss her additional role in education policy - borne of the need she saw with her own students to promote tolerance in the classroom by studying history - specifically, the Holocaust. Her advocacy for Holocaust education to be mandatory all Texas public schools was instrumental in getting Senate Bill 1828 enacted into law.
