It's episode 3 of the podcast and we're talking about EPISODE 2 of Starfleet Academy! We talk about the professors of Starfleet Academy, their teaching styles, and how they handle all of the student behaviors that pop up in the classroom. How do you build trust with students? How do you deal with disruptions? How do you tactfully put a student on blast when they think they know everything already?! If you like the pod, give us a five star review! Live long and prosper!
