ABOUT JESUIT EDUCATORS PODCAST SERIES

From 2016 to 2018, Cristóbal Madero, a Jesuit priest from the Chilean Province, collected stories of teachers, priests and lay people, who had spent at least 15 years of their lives teaching in Jesuit high schools.

In this podcast series, some of these stories are shared with the community in the hope that they can be used to keep the story of Jesuits’ involvement in the classroom alive, but also as a means to engage and motivate new teachers by sharing insight into what it means to be a teacher in a Jesuit high school.
