Few questions about your philosophy of life, your teaching, and your adventures around the globe 

Jerry (Stacy) : Hello everyone, welcome to the Jerry show,  today we are receiving Emma who is a teacher and Zinedine who want to become a PE teacher, and who had adventures during their vacations, because you know teachers have a lot of vacations and time flies, so please tell us something   

Zinedine : I’m a fox in a box. I felt that becoming a PE teacher would allow me to have all my holidays, but I’m nervous because if I miss my Capeps, I’m scared to be sidelined and can’t have a contractual job.

Jerry (Stacy) : Yes exactly, you have to keep your goal in mind, to be sure to stack all the odds in your favor 

Emma : When I’m on vacation, I like dancing in the forest and being alone to ressource myself and keep my eye on the ball because I’m sometime exhausted with the students that stick like glue.

Alex, Clover et Sam : Hello Jerry !

Jerry - Let's get straight to the heart of the matter. Tell us about your adventures at your new high school in New York. Sam, you're in basketball right now, like everyone. It says what.

Sam - Basketball is the best sport in the world. In my class, the aim is to define the GOAT according to various criteria. For example, the GOAT of shooting, the GOAT of passing, the GOAT of encouragement. Lots of things! Isn't it great?

Clover - Oh yes, it’s very cool ! But basketball culture at the moment is very much based on trash talking. Especially since Stephen Curry said “night night” at the Paris olympics. 

Alex - It's clear that students sometimes believe in themselves too much.

Jerry - Okay, so it must be a little hard to keep them focused.

Alex - Yes, but then it's the culture of the sport, so in the end it shows a certain kind of commitment, and it's a lot of fun.

Clover - Yes, personally I'm trying to develop the Mamba’s mentality of never giving up, especially in the money time.

Sam - I completely agree, then at the end to please them, I take the players with the best mentality to organize the All Star Game at the end of lesson. They love it.

Jerry - Wow, where did you come up with all these ideas? 

Clover - Jerry, by sending us on missions all over the world... 

Sam - We've seen a lot. 

Alex - Basketball is just one sport among many.

Jerry - I understand, next time you'll have to tell me everything else then.
