Luke Gherardi talks with me about his novella Children of Violence. This is episode 448 of Teaching Learning Leading K12.
Luke Gherardi is a writer of short stories. Children of Violence is his first novella. He writes what he knows, basing his fiction on real-life people and inspired by his observations or first-hand experience of actual events.
He is a fighter. And a survivor.
He overcame childhood cancer – lymphoma. That was the easy part. Being raised in dysfunction was not.
Growing up in a suburb of St. Louis, Luke lived with his mother, a church-going, God-fearing woman from The Philippines, who provided anything but a sane childhood. To the outside world, everything seemed normal in this nice farm community. But in reality, he says his mom’s practice of her faith was more like a cult, where militaristic brainwashing went on. He grew up with survivalists.
His parents were divorced when he was very young. He would visit his dad on the weekend in a crime-infested part of St. Louis, where the gang-ridden streets were filled with people who cared nothing about their lives and even less about yours. His dad was a bit of a hustler and gambler. He drank excessively, popped pills, and smoked marijuana. He lived in a condemned building and suffered from mental issues. He committed suicide a decade ago.
As soon as Luke turned 18 and graduated from high school, he left home and never looked back. He moved to Denver, where he knew no one and had nothing. He made a life for himself, met a woman, and got married. They had a child together. A few years later, they divorced. For the past decade, he has worked for North Park Transportation, beginning as a dock supervisor and working his way up to fleet safety manager. He earned his A.A.S. in Avionics Engineering from Colorado Aero Tech. He lives just outside of Denver and enjoys raising his daughter, age 7.
Thanks for listening.

Jeanine Jannot, PhD - The Disintegrating Student: Struggling but Smart, Falling Apart, and How to Turn It Around. This is episode 447 of Teaching Learning Leading K12.
Dr. Jeannine Jannot (JUH-noh) has more than twenty-five years of experience working with children, teenagers, and young adults in both public and private school settings spanning preschool through college. She holds a master's degree in school psychology from The Ohio State University and a doctorate in child and developmental psychology from the University of Connecticut. Since 2010, she has been a college instructor teaching psychology courses and freshman seminars.
In 2014, Dr. Jannot founded The Balanced Student in response to the struggling students she encountered, both in her college classrooms and in her own home. As a mother of three, she has witnessed first-hand the challenges our children face, quickly becoming a familiar pattern of good students falling apart. As their grades decline and their work piles up, their anxiety spirals out of control and they become what she calls a disintegrating student.
Today, with escalating numbers of students failing their virtual classes during the pandemic, disintegrating students have become a nationwide crisis.
In her book THE DISINTEGRATING STUDENT: Struggling but Smart and Falling Apart… and How to Turn it Around, Dr. Jannot explains the phenomenon of the smart-turned-struggling student from the viewpoints of both the parent and the student. She provides an in-depth look at the four primary influences that can trigger a student to disintegrate. With a realistic and supportive voice, along with the latest research and short sidebars with real student experiences, Dr. Jannot gives parents timely, practical tips to get their kids motivated, confident, and inspired.
Thanks for listening.
