Join us as we connect with Yuliya Bondarenko, Larisa Khizhnyakova and Tanya in the vast and diverse land of Russia. Discover why Russia has such low average class sizes. Learn about some significant changes that have affected Russia's education recently. And practice a Russian phrase or two along the way! You won't need to pack your parkas and touques for this episode, but you'll definitely need your earbuds!

It's off to Finland where we explore the ins and outs of the Finnish education system with our guests Jorgen Holmberg and Anna-Karin Brunberg!  Interested to hear about "phenomenon based learning"?  Is it possible to have a robust education system even with the lowest amount of instructional hours per week?  Well grab your head phones and see you on the air-waves (and at the Wife Carrying Contest)!
