In what might be the funniest episode of All Things Education, Kristen and I discuss her unconventional path to becoming an educator, how she incorporates her sarcasm and humor into the classroom, meeting students at their levels of energy and "teaching life." Kristen is one of the most "real-life" educators I know and it was a pleasure to chat with her.

(Sub-topics covered: Taylor Swift, High School Musical, and "Christmas Tree Teacher")

*Correction: In this episode we incorrectly reference the movie High School Musical. The correct reference should have been the movie "Jump In." Kristen insisted I make this note.
