Inspiring Education with Dr Percy Abram and Singer-Songwriter Tyler Stenson

Ruth Copland and MC Hager talk with Dr Percy Abram, Principal of Gateway School in Santa Cruz, about stressed out students and what constitutes academic success. Is it only the grades that count? We chat about how best we can instil a love of learning in our students and prepare them for the new marketplace. Also the unique approach Gateway has so that students are inspired, encouraged and challenged by their talented faculty. http://www.gatewaysc.org/

Ruth Copland interviews Tyler Stenson and plays tracks from his 10th album Some Days I’m A Lion. Tyler’s star is definitely in the ascendant building on many years of outstanding writing and playing. He recently opened for LeAnn Rimes and she tweeted “You make some great music friend. I love your voice.” We discuss the genesis of his beautifully crafted lyrics and mellow, haunting music and vocals. His music is available on iTunes and from his web site. http://tylerstenson.com/
