“The premise of this podcast - that school is slightly wasted on us when we are young and that learning is an ongoing, lifelong activity - is what drew me in. As well as, of course, my appreciation of Greg James’ boundless charm and energy, and admiration for Bella Mackie - the ultimate cool girl...”Read full review »

“I starting listening for the banter between Greg & Bella - I still love the bants, but now I’m gripped by the lessons! I’ve learnt more than I EVER learnt at school, from these inspirational teachers. I went to a fee paying private girls college and we never had teachers of the caliber of...”Read full review »

“I felt bad for the teacher. She was basically a mediator for this couple. Stop arguing and let the teacher get on with the lesson. They constantly interrupted her with their jabs at each other or jokes. Annoying.”
“More self indulgence “look how funny I am” from the presenters, than actually teaching and revisiting subjects from school, which what I listened to this show for. Took nearly ten min minutes to get onto the actual content and it was very light on the subject matter. Wont be listening to a second...”Read full review »

“Love listening to this podcast. I’m a maths teacher and the way all the other teachers talk about their subjects has inspired me to come up with some new lesson ideas. I’ve also completely stolen the “that’s not so random” lesson and my kids loved it.”
