Welcome to Part 2 of our spotlight on our 2021 Educators of Excellence honorees! Last week, you heard from the ladies, and this week the gentlemen get a turn to share their stories. We dive deep into the importance of representation, radical innovations for teaching, and why it's so impactful to pour into young people. BONUS: Taylor Cao and Aaron Youngblood just so happen to be New Memphis Embark alumni! DOUBLE BONUS: This episode is the extended cut of what aired live on the radio on WYXR (8 extra minutes of insights!).

This year, the New Memphis Educators of Excellence Award was generously funded by the Crews Foundation.
