#98 - Truly Terrific Teaching Today with CA Teacher of the Year Jason Torres-Rangel!
Here at All of the Above we loooove teachers, especially super-dope ones. We’re also, perhaps, a tad bit partial to California. That being the case, it should come as no surprise to our AOTA Family that we’d bring on yet another super-dope teacher from California–Jason Torres-Rangel!! Jason is a California State Teacher of the Year and a California nominee for the National Teacher of the Year competition, and he joins us to discuss the present and future of the teaching profession. But first, Jeff and Manuel take a look at recent headlines in education including a new study showing the benefits of small emergency grants for college students and a bit of shade being thrown at the Department of Education from the Government Accountability Office.
