Marine and Avilla have a great chat with Granada high school substitute teacher turned elementary and middle school special education teacher turned Livermore real estate agent Jacob Fahnhorst. We discussed Jake's deep roots in Livermore, his transition from educator to real estate agent, and his heart for serving others, which is what he does best. Listen in to hear more about his work ethic and philosophy as well as some fun stories about growing up in Livermore with our cohost Mr. Avilla.
In this episode two GHS teachers, Ms. Arora and Ms. Harrington, and I dive into what it is like to be a teacher with their personal stories and struggles; and whether or not they get paid justly.
