Ep. 8--Teacher Talk-a Conversation with Allison Sprouse

For this episode, we talk with Allison Sprouse, high school English teacher at Stuarts Draft High School in Virginia. Along the way, we cover Teach Like a Pirate, NBCT, and standardized tests just to name a few. It was a fun conversation, and having known Allison and worked with her, I couldn't think of a better way to start off our teacher podcasts.
