Episode 27: Mike Yates and Naphtali Bryant: Reinventing Schools and Homeschooling

We are tackling some big, possibly controversial ideas in this episode. It's all about calling into question everything we think about education. While I do that all the time on this show, we are going further this time. My two incredible guests are, TedX speaker and an educator with Alpha, Mike Yates and Naphtali Bryant, founder of Spark-Ed University.

We are tackling some big, possibly controversial ideas today. It’s all about calling into question everything we think about education. While I do that all the time on this show, we are going further this time. I have two incredible guests today, TedX speaker and an educator with Alpha, Mike Yates and Naphtali Bryant, founder of Spark-Ed University. We have a great, sometimes radical, and totally entertaining look at how to reinvent school. And they slay The 5-Minute Game Show. But first, I address an issue that is on so many parents’ minds as they try to figure out what is best for their kids this school year. More parents than ever are considering homeschooling - but are overwhelmed. It’s time to shift paradigms!

Special thanks to Naphtali and Mike. And my love and gratitude to the incredibly talented Linda Korn for providing all the beautiful harmonies in today’s fauxmericial.
