Our guest today is Bobby Zervas, a Chicago native who moved from a different continent and a different career to become an English Language Arts teacher in our Middle School in Athens. Mr. Zervas talks with us about the challenges and rewards of the classroom, especially when you have to face the insecurities and unique abilities of students of multiple languages.
Another interesting topic we attempt to tackle is the merit and importance of Language Arts, especially when students cultivate conscious citizenship through learning the language. Bobby Zervas is also very involved with the student council and discusses the politics and leadership issues facing students that attempt to become leaders, all at the same time when the entire school focuses on meeting the Sustainable Development Goals.
