Your Teacher Interview - Louisville Magazine

I’m Josh, editor of Louisville Magazine, and — in collaboration with JCTA — we’re wondering:

What’s one thing you’d recommend to improve schools in Louisville? And what’s one thing you’d definitely warn against?

Below, you’ll find several of my questions. You don’t have to answer all but certainly can. We want you to be able to say as much or as little as you’d like and are hoping at least some questions will spark something for you. I’d love it if you’d at least answer two or three. And when answering, the more specific the better.

At Louisville Magazine, we want to include the perspectives of teachers more often — and I’m happy you’ll be a part of that.

If you have thoughts or questions, please don’t hesitate to get in touch:

Thank you so, so much for sharing your story. — Josh

Let's get started: First, what’s your name? (First and last would be great, but whatever you’re comfortable with, including remaining anonymous.)

We'd love to share back with you some of what you and the other teachers share. If it'd be OK to get in touch, what email address is best?

Would you prefer we use your name if we quote you?

I’d rather remain anonymous

Yep, you can quote me

OK, let's get into it: Anything you'd like to share about your job — your school, your position there, how long you've been there?

On a scale of 1 (less committed than ever) to 5 (more committed than ever), how would the people who know you best — your family, friends and colleagues — describe your relationship to your job right now?

In one word (or so), fill in the blank: In Louisville, is power.

To improve your school, what’s one thing, big or small, you’d definitely suggest should be done?

What’s one thing, big or small, you’d definitely warn against?

And what’s one idea that’s probably ridiculous — but you wonder if it just might work?

What's something about the teaching profession that you find unsurprising, but when a non-teacher hears it they're surprised?

Finally, we always like to include this space here, in case you have anything else you want to share — about your answers or anything else.
