Ready To Redo

Hi I’m Jo Yang, and on Ready to Redo we’re mixing banter and lightheartedness with the juicy topic of educational re-doing. ‘Ready to redo’ unpacks how the traditional education system is failing us, and what to do moving forward. Join me for personal schooling anecdotes, and interviews with people who see the need for a redo. Humour enough to garner mild snorts can be expected.
