The "My Teacher" series from North Carolina Public Radio explores what it takes to make a connection in the classroom by asking students to interview their teachers.
North Carolina Public Radio WUNC is in the midst of a yearlong examination of what it's like to be an educator, called the North Carolina Teacher Project. The My Teacher series brings that conversation to the classroom level, exploring what it takes to make a connection in the classroom by asking students to interview their teachers.
The My Teacher series is part of American Graduate-Let’s Make it Happen!- a public media initiative to address the drop out crisis, supported by the Corporation for Public Broadcasting.
