A Couple of Teachers Podcast is hosted by two elementary school teachers who just happen to be married. Becky and Danny Sha teach in Southern Oregon, and while they may have different approaches to teaching, they complement each other nicely. Their different teaching styles make for interesting conversation as they discuss current events, best practices, and share stories from their teaching adventures. Otherwise known as Redhead Ed and Mr. Weird Beard, these two educators have a passion for teaching and despite their differences, one thing they can agree on is that students are always at the center of their work.
