In Episode 4 of 'The Classics Podcast Does...Careers', we welcome rapper and educator Jonathan Goddard, the Director of Teaching and Learning at the Latin Programme and the Executive Director of Rapteach, to discuss infusing music and language learning, being a better teacher than a student, the kinesthetic method, and why Latin is a superpower!

Jonathan studied Anthropology at the School of Oriental and African Studies (SOAS) and he is a performer, teacher and creative director.

In this series, we meet guests from all walks of life, fascinating people with a connection to classics who lead fascinating lives and we discuss where studying the past can take you; what classicists bring to the workplace (and the world!); how to forge your own path; and the resonance of the ⁠#ancientworld⁠.

Share your own personal story about #classics⁠ and ⁠#careers⁠ and find us at @theclassicalpod on Instagram or Threads.
