This week on Busted Knees & Pretty Trees, we sit down with the man, the myth, the legend — Paddy’s old biology teacher, Jabin Burnworth — and trust us… this one is special.  You know that teacher who made science feel like an adventure instead of an assignment? The one who turned confusion into curiosity and classrooms into ecosystems? That was Jabin.
In this episode, we talk about what makes a great teacher great, how to make biology attainable for every kid, and why curiosity is still the most powerful tool in the outdoors. We dive into stories from the classroom, lessons that stuck for a lifetime, and how mentorship can shape the trajectory of a student’s world.
There’s laughter. There’s nostalgia. There’s some serious birding talk. And there’s a whole lot of appreciation for the educators who change lives without even realizing it.
If you’ve ever had a teacher who made you feel seen, capable, and curious — this episode is for you.
