Glenview Middle School - The Secret Life of Teachers Podcast
Do you ever wonder what your teachers are up to when they leave school at the end of the day? Is it possible they are busy working towards a black belt in jiu jitsu, attending a Snoop Dogg concert, or reminiscing with friends about their Division 1 college football years? Could they be having food fights at home with their kids, coaching a team, or taking classes themselves? In this podcast, students interview teachers at Glenview Middle School and get to know them on a more personal level.
Today's featured podcast... Mr. Hepner - Episode 101
Whether he's working on a black belt in jiu jitsu or taking a trip to Costa Rica with his toddler, Mr. Hepner is ready for a challenge! In this episode of The Secret Life of Teachers, you will learn about some of the other things this 8th grade social studies teacher does when he's not at school!
