In episode 1 we introduce the podcast and interrogate the public perception of teachers. We look for answers in several months of education-related articles in The New York Times.

Ep 1: "You're a TEACHER!?"

The New York City Department of Education serves over a million students and employs over 75,000 teachers. This podcast attempts to answer some of the toughest questions teachers might encounter in the largest school system in the country. How does the city spend its $34 billion with a 'b' education budget? What does the UFT do for teachers? How long does it take to get tenure? What is for lunch today? This show is not affiliated with the NYC DOE, but it does attempt to answer these questions and more, so skip this week's mandated PD and get all the answers here, on Professional Development: The New York City Teacher Podcast.
