Teacher Talk - In a Car: Recent Episodes
Teacher Talk
Three primary school teachers (Ben, Jemma and Dan) from Sheffield UK, sharing a car journey to and from school each day. Sharing personal stories and putting the world to rights as part of their daily commute. Join with them and gain a small insight into the world of education from these very normal teachers.
We have made it to episode 10, even though at the beginning of this episode we are lost somewhere in Sheffield, trying to find the house of a friend of Dan's. The journey continues with more sports stories about Jemma's netball team and Ben's yellow cards from his football glory days. Dan revisits how his parents made him and his brother take it in turns to win when they did sports! https://twitter.com/TeacherTalk_car
This episode is not for the feint hearted as Ben describes (in some detail) the failings of his big toe nail. We also take time to iron out some misconceptions about the podcast journey and how it's recorded and who exactly is doing the driving.

SATs special: In this episode Dan shares the details of his weekend filming dogs. Much of his story is unbelievable - but true. Ben tells about the challenges of his photoshoot with a young couple. Jemma has something in her eye - aggravated by hay-fever. Connect with us on Twitter: https://twitter.com/TeacherTalk_car
In Episode 7 we take time to respond to the kind messages we have received from listeners. We discuss what jobs would we be doing if we weren't teachers, the joys of Five Guys burgers and what the attraction to watching darts is... Connect with us on Twitter: https://twitter.com/TeacherTalk_car
The discussion gets more reflective today as we look back on our school days to remember teachers who inspired us. Teacher talk in a car is now on Twitter (https://twitter.com/TeacherTalk_car) if you would like to join in the discussion. Did you have good teachers in your school days? Can you still remember the positive (and negative) words that they may have spoken to you? A massive thank you to our colleagues, Ruth, Dan, Alex and Jonny for sharing their memories with us.
Today's discussion gets more serious as Ben, Jemma and Dan discuss the pros and cons of teaching different age groups.
Today's discussion features TV shows, supply teachers and Dan's percentages in his basketball team.
Ben has trouble with his football team as he became the top goal scorer - but it's not what you think.
