What can Western education learn from the East, and vice versa? Our 71st interview is with Jennifer Chang-Wathall, a teacher of 27 years, a part-time lecturer at the University of Hong Kong and educational consultant -  specialising in concept-based curriculums and instruction.

We ask what a typical day looks like for Jennifer on the road and what makes a great maths teacher. We also learn how education in the classroom has changed as a result of education technology and Jennifer’s PhD in edtech.
We ask what workload issues Jennifer discovers on her travels to schools around the world and the one thing Jennifer would like to see changed in education. Her answer? Well, you'll have to listen very carefully.
