Inspiring students to become leaders

Описание: In this episode, Nina first meets Chaitra Murlidhar, in Boston in the US. Chaitra is the Global Lead of Leadership Development at Teach For All. Teach For All developed a Teaching as Collective Leadership Framework, which puts growing student leadership at the core of its approach to education. “Nobody can do this alone”, Chaitra says. “We are all connected with the common challenges we face in education.”


Next, Nina speaks to Hamlet Khachatryan, who teaches English as a foreign language in Armenia. He noticed that students in his classroom weren’t listening to each other, so he encouraged them to listen to each other’s voices and understand that everyone’s ideas matter. Hamlet says, “listening is an indicator of being a good leader”.


Finally, Nina meets Nicole Ames Chipana, who shares her experiences teaching science in a rural school in Peru. Nicole gave students challenges that mattered to them in their real lives, not just for school. “Leadership is about taking action and believing in your own power to create change.”
