Reach Youth by Listening to Them, with Scott Steward
Chicago educator and entrepreneur Scott Steward breaks down his teaching
philosophy, rooted in getting to know his students. Steward founded Genius Lab
in Chicago, where he teaches young people technology, business, and how to
become an adult. He honed his curriculum from teaching in Chicago Public Schools
classrooms for fifteen years in largely black and brown communities. First
Steward traces his youth on the South Side of Chicago, when he did not
prioritize academics at all, and then he explains the turning points that took
him through the corporate world and eventually to teaching youth who grew up
much like himself. Related to this episode: • Scott Steward:
