In this episode I have a conversation with Alex Calderon.He is the host of the 1stgenteacherlens podcast that talks about issues that concern his identity and other 1st generation students and discusses topics within the education realm. He is also a 7th-grade ELA/S.S. teacher, 1st Generation Latinx American in NYC. He hopes to get involved within the administration field one day.  We discuss his origin story, teaching in NYC, how to handle teacher burnout, and so much more. If you would like to connect with Alex his instagram handle is: Mr. C @1stgenteacherlens
