Listen Later

Listen to my heroes, Becca Leech - a teacher from Tennessee who is a rock star of a human being and Rafael Alvarez who helps students make a life for themselves. Both of these amazing people are leading the way in education and I think you will learn about what YOU and I can do to help.

 

Becca Leech received a Fulbright Distinguished Award in Teaching to the United Kingdom in order to research upper secondary educational options. In England she focused on apprenticeships and now brings those ideas to students in rural Warren County Tennessee. She has worked in education since 1991 as a teacher, consultant, and program coordinator. @beccaleech

Rafael became an Ashoka Fellow in 2006, was awarded the sole Entrepreneurial Leadership Award from Texas A&M University in 2012 and was inducted into the Immigrant Entrepreneur Hall of Fame also in 2012.
