Summary: Mr. Mortenson is the fun, caring teacher you had - or wish you'd had - in elementary school. Hear him relate his journey to elementary teaching and dispense, in his inimitably lighthearted manner, how to achieve the following:

• Learning from mentor teachers (like Uncle Evan)
• Thoroughly enjoying the job ("If you've been teaching for a while and you still feel like you're babysitting, something's not right")
• Floating a family of five as the primary breadwinner
• Building positive relationships with students and parents
• Responding if a student calls you out for farting in class

Disclaimer: Sorry about the mixed audio quality on our mics - not sure what happened to the soundboard.

Shout-outs: Uncle Evan Mortenson; single parents.
