Today’s Guest
Robert Coutts
Robert has been teaching in collaboration with the Toronto Catholic District School Board since 2010.

His form of classroom management system serves as an economy and allows students to simultaneously feel challenged and worthwhile. He is also the author of his newly released book “I’m a Kid with a Mortgage”.
