Who Is Picking Up Your Tab? The Cost of Learning - Episode 3
Who really pays for your education—from classrooms to coding bootcamps?
Welcome back to Who’s Picking Up Your Tab?—the podcast that traces the invisible hands behind every success story. I’m your host, Pam, and today we’re heading back to school—literally. From public classrooms to online courses, college tuition to mentorship, we’re asking: who’s funding your future?
Segment 1: The School That Built You
Remember that teacher who changed your life? Or the public school that gave you your first book? Behind every "self-made" success is a school system, a taxpayer, a counselor, and a cafeteria worker—let’s give them their due.
Segment 2: Degrees, Debt, and DIY Learning
College is expensive, but it isn’t the only path to knowledge. From Khan Academy to Coursera, online platforms are opening doors—but not every learner starts from the same line. Who gets access, and who’s left behind?
Segment 3: The Secret Teachers
Some of the most valuable lessons come from unexpected places—coaches, mentors, neighbors, and aunties. We highlight the invisible educators shaping our lives outside the classroom.
Segment 4: The Price of Potential
Education is never truly free. Someone always pays—with their time, dollars, or sacrifice. Behind every breakthrough is a village that made it possible—let’s talk about them.
