Episode 32: Episode 32: The Teaching Professional Journey

Welcome to the NYS AHPERD A-Z Health And PE Podcast. This is one of three episodes where we have invited special guests and students from summer courses I teach at Canisius University. Students in this class entitled Capstone in Physical Education are graduate teacher candidates on the verge of student teaching either in the fall or this upcoming spring. Today, we have invited special guests from the NYC DOE and nearby area to discuss the teaching profession. Our graduate students have been asked to review some articles speaking to the teaching profession. Our first guest is Mr. Orlando Cordero. Mr. Orlando Cordero is a dedicated advocate for education, currently serving as the President of the New York City ZONE for the New York State Association for Health, Physical Education, Recreation, and Dance (NYS AHPERD). In his role as a Physical Education Instructional Coach for the New York City Public Schools' Office of School Wellness Programs, Orlando plays a crucial role in shaping the educational landscape and promoting wellness initiatives. Sharing the stage with Mr. Cordero is Mr. Anthony Carrano. Anthony is an Instructional Lead with the New York City Department of Education, a Physical Education Adjunct Professor at Brooklyn College, a Martial Arts Instructor for the Hoteikan System, and a Climbing Conditioning Coach at Cliffs Climbing Gym. Prior to his current roles, Anthony served as the New York City President for the Association of Health, Physical Education, Recreation, and Dance, taught Physical Education and Health to K-12 students and coached High School Track and Field for the Public-School Athletic League. He holds a School District Leader Certificate, a Masters in Kinesiology, is a Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist with the NSCA and is certified in the Science of Happiness from the Greater Good Science Center. And not to be outdone, our third guest is the one and only Ms. Laura Pizella. Laura has been an educator for 30 years. Laura has been involved in many different facets of education. She has worked on many committees to improve the learning outcomes of middle school students in the South Bronx.
