Q1
What mattered the most to you when you were in school?
上学时，对你来说最重要的是什么？
Shane: As a podcaster, I love a good question and this one is awesome! I was a proud geek at school and loved learning – I still do. But my best memory was music – I played the trumpet in the school band and spend every lunch practicing in the music room. When I was young, I was painfully shy, and music became my social outlet. I’ve been passionate ever since about creating safe and welcoming spaces for all learners in our schools. I believe that when a child feels truly safe, creativity and confidence flourish.
肖恩：作为一名播客主持人，我喜欢好问题，而这就是一个极好的问题！在学校，我是喜欢学习——现在也一样。但我最美好的记忆是关于音乐的——我在学校乐队里吹小号，并且每天中午都在音乐教室里练习。小时候，我非常害羞，音乐成为了我的社交渠道。从那时起，我就热衷于在学校里为所有学习者创造一个安全、温馨的空间。我相信，当一个孩子真正感到安全时，他的创造力和自信心就会得到蓬勃发展。
Q2
Tell us about your podcast.
谈谈你的博客吧。
Shane: Global Ed Leaders is a weekly podcast for international school leaders, whether they be head teachers, department leads or aspiring leaders. Every other week, I speak to the teachers, leaders and innovators making a difference in education around the world. And in between I release bitesize episodes with leadership strategies. The podcast has grown into a worldwide community and now attracts some of the biggest names in education.
肖恩：全球教育领袖（Global Ed Leaders）是一个每周更新的，面向国际学校领导层的播客，包括校长、部门领导和教育界有远见的领导者。每隔一周，我都会和世界各地在教育领域有所作为的教师、领导者和创新者对话，并在对话间隙发表一些关于领导策略的小插曲。现在，这档播客已经成长为一个全球性的社群，并吸引了很多教育界的大腕。
Q3
How can people get involved with the Global Ed Leaders community?
人们怎么才能参与到Global Ed Leaders（全球教育领袖）社群呢？
Shane: Community is at the heart of the podcast. I’m always looking for ideas for my next episode or guest and would love people to get in touch. I host live spaces and can often be seen hanging out on LinkedIn. The best way you can get involved in the community is to contribute to the Global Ed Leaders LIVE Spaces. These take place every Thursday evening and anyone can contribute the discussions there. Have a listen to the podcast and follow me to join the next Space!

Q4
Describe your perfect day in China.
描述一下你在中国度过的完美一天吧。
Shane:My wife, Emma, and I adore living in Shanghai, but always crave the countryside. So, for me, there is no better way to spend time than to jump in a car with Emma and our two miniature schnauzers and head into the Moganshan bamboo forests for a weekend of peace. The local village food, the fresh air, the stunning scenery – what’s more perfect than that?
肖恩：我的妻子艾玛和我都非常喜欢在上海的生活，但我们也渴望到郊外走走。所以对我来说，消磨时间的最好方式莫过于带着艾玛和我们的两只迷你雪纳瑞犬一起跳上车，在莫干山竹林度过一个宁静的周末。乡村美食、新鲜空气、美丽风景——还有什么比这更完美的吗？
Based on the celebrated series “Humans of New York”, we want to share the most exciting people in education that China has to offer.
受到著名摄影系列作品“人在纽约”（Humans of New York）的启发，我们想分享中国教育界最令人激动的人物。
