What the Family Studies?

Welcome to our What the Family Studies? podcast, here to help family studies educators create engaging and valuable learning experiences for their students that will last a lifetime. We will interview those who are passionate about family studies education. Some weeks we will interview a current teacher or professional working in the field who will share their real experiences, insights, and strategies for successful delivery of family studies curriculum. We also want to focus some of our time on your wellness. The last couple of years have been so stressful and your wellness is so important. While we are based in Ontario, we are sure that our podcast will prove helpful and entertaining to teachers in other places too.

The Value of Networking

March 17, 2023 • OFSHEEA • Season 1 • Episode 12

In this episode we interview Leisa Hucal about the value of networking. Lesia is a high school Family Studies teacher at St. Thomas More Catholic Secondary School in Hamilton, Ontario. She came into teaching with a background and full-time career in dietetics and public health promotion. Lesia works collaboratively now to reinforce current trends and strategies with both staff and students that help to make food experience fun in the classroom, and strive to undo diet culture. She values the expertise of colleagues and partners in the health and education community that work in tandem to achieve more than she could herself. In today's episode Lesia talks about the value of networking with other educators and community partners to create a classroom that supports all students. We hope you find this episode as helpful and inspirational as we did!
