I recently had a chance to talk with renowned “rapping” math teacher Mark Rogers from Round Rock, Texas. Rogers shared the story of how he got his start in teaching and discussed the role humanity plays in his day-to-day activities with students. After watching the interview, check out the YouTube video displaying Mark’s creative side in education.

Mark Rogers is a math teacher in Round Rock, TX. We both shared the stage, at SXSW Edu, as panelists for the LaunchEdu program. Mark talks about his professional transition from investment banker to teacher and what it means to be a male in education. Roger’s passion for his students elicits a new look at what it means to be a teacher in the U.S. Listen to the interview below:
