Teacher Breathe

This podcast will embolden anyone interested in education. We undertake divergent topics to enlighten us on what it means to be a citizen, to be educated, and to educate. We discuss innovations and brainstorm. As a high-school Social Studies teacher of over twenty years, I believe in the power of conversation while understanding much of what teachers do is in isolation: lesson planning, grading, classroom management, and teaching. There's also the enormity of growing informed and empowered citizens by our instruction. In 2012, I earned a D.Litt. from Drew University where I reinvented my teaching by unearthing my assumptions. In 2019, Digital Promise selected me as an HP Teaching Fellow, recognizing me as an innovator in the classroom. Our conversations won't go into criticizing administrators, colleagues, parents, or students. Reach out to me at: @GlenLColeman Email: info@teacherbreathe.com

    Bill Brown: Real BoatCrew2

    Bill Brown discusses his journey from tormented youth to Navy SEAL, family man--family as comrades-in-arms and husband and father.  His story reveals the redemptive quality of deep grit as an equalizing force when given opportunity.  Bill Brown's teamwork with David Goggins on BoatCrew2 during Hell Week clarifies, when we grind we shine.  The picture is of Bill Brown at the podium after Manhattan's Navy SEALS swim, a fundraiser to help end homelessness among veteran. 60 former SEALs swam three miles across the Hudson River from Ellis Island in Jersey City, to Statue of Liberty, and Manhattan 9-11 Memorial. At each stop they did 22 pull-ups in honor of the 22 veterans who commit suicide daily and 100 push-ups in honor of diversity.
