Life Behind the Desk

In Life Behind the Desk, Jonathon Miller takes you into the classroom so he can give teachers an opportunity to answer the questions they wish they were asked. Discover the challenges that teachers face on a day to day basis and the added challenges they are facing due to school closures as a result of COVID-19 from a personal perspective. Dive deeper than the stories featured in the mass media so you can gain a greater understanding of what it's like to be trusted with the care and education of the nation's children from the people who do the job. Jonathon will talk to teachers from around the country to learn how they deal with under-funded classrooms, challenging parents, the administration, work life balance, and more in a public school setting. We'll also delve into what it was like the day they got sent home and told to teach from there, how they are coping with it today, and what they see in their future. If you've ever wondered what it was like to be a teacher: the struggle, the balance, and just what do they do over summer vacation we’ve got you covered.
