Hosts, Malcolm & Malcolm, discuss the importance of the language we use in the classroom when we speak to our students and when we teach our lessons. The discussion of language in the classroom makes us reflect on how we can reverse the systems of oppression that exists inside schools and create safe, engaging learning environments. 

For episode 3 of Talking To Myself, hosts Malcolm & Malcolm discuss their life as student teachers. They talk about their experiences and how they envisioned the process working out and what happened in reality. The conversation then shifts to a discussion of bringing culturally relevant pedagogy to the classroom and how they can be culturally relevant through their language and actions in the classroom.

This episode hosts Malcolm and Malcolm talk more about their background as educators as they investigate and reminisce about their first experiences as teachers and what it means to truly lead a classroom. This conversation takes them more in-depth at their role and what they want to contribute to children as they continue to engage more and more students.
