Dr Katriona O’Sullivan and the teachers she has never forgotten
Her memoir ‘Poor” has been a bestseller for months, it has won two awards in recent weeks and in this episode Dr Katriona O’Sullivan joins Louise to talk about the teachers at primary and second level that she has never forgotten.
Some showed her how to wash, another nurtured a love of reading and literature. But they also did much more: they made her feel empowered and cared for. In many ways they epitomise what Teachers Inspire is about.
Education, and access to it, remain very important to Katriona who is a psychologist and a senior lecturer in Maynooth University.
