This podcast has been an invaluable resource as a PGCE student in terms of keeping me up to date on current books and hot topics in education and higher ed. Emma and Tom are superb hosts. Highly recommended!
Would recommend this podcast to all students in their PGCE and moving forward in their teaching careers. Emma and Tom are excellent, informed hosts who present great insights and tips for educators.
Currently a student at the same university in which they both teach; thoroughly enjoying the podcast, lots of information but every podcast is very enjoyable!
Thank you Emma, Tom and guests.
Your podcasts are inspiring, really good and easy to listen to and very informative. I am encouraging SJHS staff to subscribe and of course the next amazing cohort of ITE teachers.
Thanks again!
I started listening to this podcast when it first launched in September 2018 and now I am starting my Primary PGCE in Cardiff Met 12 months later!
The content of these podcasts is great for anyone in the process of applying to be a teacher or for a teacher with decades of experience.
Thanks Emma and Tom. I can’t wait to join you soon!
