What is “English Teacher” about?
Created by and starring Brian Jordan Alvarez, “English Teacher” centers around Austin, Texas, high school teacher, Evan Marquez. At the end of the day, Evan wants to a principled person, a desire that often lands him in trouble. By his side is Gwen Sanders (Stephanie Koenig), an optimistic history teacher, and Markie Hillridge (Sean Patton), a PE teacher who’s a close work friend despite their many disagreements. There’s also Malcolm (Jordan Firstman) in the mix, Evan’s on-again, off-again wild boyfriend who used to work at the school.
Rounding out this comedy are Principal Grant Moretti (Enrico Colantoni) and Guidance counselor Rick (Carmen Christopher), who share the same basic desire — to be left alone. Principal Grant wants nothing more than peace and often takes the path of least resistance, which often pits him against Evan. And as for Rick, the last place he wants to be is at this school as he spends most of the series hanging out with his friends.
