Back To School With David Koch

The sun rises on a new season of Back to School With. Good thing our first guest back is Sunrise co-host David "Kochie" Koch.

This post is presented in partnership with ReachOut.

Back to School With invites Australia's most interesting and successful people to share stories from their school days. In each episode, they let us know how they landed their dream careers, as well as how they faced all those inevitable obstacles of teenagerdom along the way.

In the first three seasons, we interviewed Julie Bishop, Anthony Albanese, Shane Jacobson, Dr. Karl, Daniel Ricciardo, Tom Ballard, Janine Allis, John Marsden, Michael Caton and many, many more fascinating peeps.

Wait until you see who we've got in store for Season Four...

In the first episode of the new season, we chat with Sunrise co-host David "Kochie" Koch and ask him how he went from economics and journalism to becoming an Aussie television icon (despite "bombing out" in the HSC, being burdened with terrible handwriting and not having a TER to get into university). TV stars: they're just like us!
