Relatable and helpful
I especially appreciated the recent episode on returning to the classroom. It was like Batsheva was speaking directly about my own career journey. I highly recommend this podcast to all educators.

Refreshing and intriguing
I love the quirky and fun bookends (fauxmercials and game show) in each episode. It's so refreshing to listen to you having fun while also digging into meaningful ways to create change in education. I'm a fan!!!

Truly Forward Thinking
This show does an amazing job of promoting forward thinking ideas of how schools can adapt to modern society. So many of the teaching methods used are archaic and this podcast does a great job of challenging those models. I enjoy the guests and the conversation. I am a firm believe that all student voices need to be heard.

The show for people who would like to see education reimagined
Great show to see all elements of education and how they could be organized differently to reach better results

Excellent!
Batsheva Frankel is an excellent interviewer who brings so much creativity and experience to the show. The faux-mercials and 5 minute game show are fantastic, but be warned: you might shout out your guesses in a public place and get weird looks!

Great Ideas
Awesome education podcast! As a former teacher, it’s inspiring to see that there are disrupters out there. Education is a cornerstone to an equitable society and full life.

Exciting!!
I really love the ideas discussed. Reminds me some of the unschooling moving. Sean Michael Morris’ ideas about teaching and grading young writers really resonates! Bat Sheva is an inspiring educator. I wish she had been my high school English teacher:)
Will listen to all episodes and happily anticipate new ones.

Fun and engaging!
This podcast series on new approaches to education is really fun and engaging. Just like education should be. Each episode keeps getting better. The host doesn’t just interview her innovative guests, she interacts and offers her vast experience which really enhances the discussions. The topics are interesting at a conceptual level, but the host always challenges the guest to provide practical and relatable specific ways to implement the ideas.
I love the “sponsored commercials” and game show included in each episode. I have a long commute to work, and Overthrowing Education makes the time fly by. I wish my teachers tried these concepts when I was in school. Can’t wait until the next episode!
