About this listen

In the debut episode of Class Dismissed with Dr. K, host Dr. Somachi Kachikwu dives into the heart of why this podcast exists. Education is often called the great equalizer, but access to quality learning remains out of reach for millions of students in rural communities. While policymakers and education reformers push for innovation, the voices of rural educators—the very people shaping the future of these students—are rarely part of the conversation.

Dr. K unpacks the realities of rural education, from overcrowded classrooms and resource gaps to the resilience of teachers making learning happen despite the odds. She explores why amplifying these voices is not just an education issue, but a justice issue, an economic issue, and a global development priority.

This episode sets the stage for what’s to come—real stories, meaningful solutions, and a fresh perspective on the future of learning. If you care about education, equity, and the power of teachers to drive change, this is where the conversation begins.

🎧 Tune in and be part of the movement to rethink education—one conversation at a time.

Class dismissed—until next time, let’s keep the conversation going!
