In this heartfelt episode, Bulelani Marwanqana reflects on the powerful impact of educators beyond the classroom, highlighting the often-overlooked victories that come from planting seeds of hope and knowledge in young minds.

He shares two real-life stories: one of a student he taught Grade 11 Maths and Physics during the 2020 lockdown—now in his second year of IT, who tracked him down just to say “thank you,” and another of a current student whose transformation caught the attention of his Geography teacher thanks to Bulelani’s unique teaching approach.

This episode reminds us that success isn’t always loud—it’s often hidden in quiet moments of growth, confidence, and appreciation. These are the unseen victories that fuel the fire of purpose in education.
