Educational Value of the Spelling Bee with Grace Walters

Guest: Grace Walters

My first guest on this podcast is Grace Walters, a former elite speller turned coach of five national champions. In this part of our conversation, we discuss the spelling bee's impact on students, Grace's own experience as a speller and a coach, her milestone of ten years as a coach, and how spelling bees and linguistic education as a whole are much more than what the public perception suggests.
