WKNO's Teacher Teacher, the Southern Queen of fun and learning, is a whimsical character created from the heart and soul of Felicia Peat, WKNO's Education & Outreach Manager.

 

You may request her to read a book, tell a story, demonstrate an engaging science experiment, or just walk around and take pictures and give hugs to your students and families. One thing you can be sure of — she will surely share her love of learning with them all.
