The episode introduces cryptocurrency to a general audience. I am credited as the speaker, Boming (Tony) Zhang.
My contribution
I wrote scripts for a six-episode educational podcast explaining Bitcoin to middle and high school audiences. I developed a storyline around an everyday notebook ledger to make abstract technical concepts concrete and accessible, worked with an editor to review the scripts, and independently recorded the episodes.
This work was completed as an educational podcast content creator and narrator for Shanghai Dawen Education Tech Co., Ltd.
Why audio and storytelling
An everyday example gives learners a starting point for unfamiliar ideas. Building an explanation around a notebook ledger lets me connect technical concepts to something listeners can picture before introducing more abstract reasoning.
The same aim guides my classroom teaching and visual explanations: give learners a concrete way into a difficult concept, then help them build a more precise understanding.
