"What School Doesn’t Teach Us: A Student’s Call for Real-World Learning | With Yana"

🎧 Podcast Drop: A Young Visionary's Perspective on the Future of Education

In this episode of The Vocal Mind, I sit down with Yana, an insightful intern at UConnect, to explore a vital question: "What should education really be preparing young people for?"

Yana offers a raw and resonant look into the gaps in today’s schooling systems — from the lack of political literacy to the urgent need for emotional intelligence and real-life readiness.

Key takeaways from our conversation: ✔ The importance of teaching communication, independence, and collaboration ✔ How flexibility and student agency can transform motivation ✔ Why AI should be embraced, not feared, in classrooms ✔ A call to empathy and excitement in teaching

Her perspective reflects what many young people feel but rarely get to say aloud — and it reminds us that those closest to the experience of schooling may be our best guides to changing it.
