Takondwa Priscilla Semphere, one of our non-resident fellows, brings us a conversation about what it is like to be an African student and eventually a teacher. Takondwa is now a secondary school teacher in South Africa and she invites fellow teacher Keith Mundangepfupfu into a conversation about their own experiences in school and about school culture. Keith Mundangepfupfu is a Zimbabwean ethics and leadership and English teacher for the SEGL in Johannesburg program. He graduated from Wesleyan University where he studied economics, history, government, philosophy, and African studies. He also graduated with a master's migration studies from Oxford University. Prior to teaching, Keith worked as a policy research analyst in the Education Portfolio at the Robertson Foundation. In his spare time, Keith is a writer and has been published in African Literary magazines including Brittle Paper and The Enkare Review.Find the books, links, and articles we mentioned in this episode on our website, ufahamuafrica.com.
