Mr. Clarke After Dark
Welcome to the “Mr. Clarke After Dark” podcast with host Lucas Clarke, an educator determined to move away from recycled professional development and engage in more nuanced, personable, and relevant conversations for learning.
Each week, Mr. Clarke unpacks the inner workings of the classroom and learns out loud with educators, politicians, comedians, and other field experts of all shapes, sizes, and burnout levels. Whether they have been in the trenches of their profession for five months or fifty years, we are here to share everything from classroom hacks, our worst mistakes, and the occasional profound musing (from the guests). From conversations about race with Daryl Davis, education reform with Jennifer Gonzalez, global educational development with professors from the World Bank, to stories about students farting in class, there will always be something you can take away from the show, for better or worse.
So, come on over and join the dark side ... unless you’re scared.

#102 - Lily Donald | Crying in Paris, The Experience of High School, and Pursuing a Crumbling Profession
In this episode, I sit down with Lily Donald, a Grade 12 student who also plans on pursuing education once she finishes high school. Our conversation dives into her transition into her final year of high school, me crying at a painting of Napoleon when we travelled together on an EF Tour, why sometimes it does matter what teacher you get, the importance she places on getting involved in school activities, thoughtful reflections on the value of strong student-teacher relationships, her time choreographing school productions and how these creative outlets have helped her connect with others and develop leadership skills, and, much more.
