Confessions of a PYP Teacher
This podcast is for anyone who is seeking ways to design learning that promotes learner independence. It began as a passion project to help teachers during the pandemic and has transformed how I look at learning within my practice. Each episode is 15 to 30 minutes long with thoughtful ideas and some tips to apply back to your practice. The episodes are largely based on the IB Primary Years Programme, but good teaching is for everyone. Even if you are teaching in a different type of program or government school, you can easily adapt the ideas to your learning context. It just requires a bit of creativity and open-mindedness. Happy Listening! For more ideas, visit lugerlach.com.

Welcome back to our podcast and the fourth episode in our well-being series.
In the last episode, we examined the power of fear in our lives. We are all struck with fear many times in our lives and there is no shame attached to it. In fact, we might have to worry if everything is perfect all of the time.
Fear is a natural response to tension in our lives, real or imagined, that can take over our rational thinking. Many of us can be controlled by fear at different times, especially during times of challenges and change. Once again, this is a normal human experience. The key is to not stay in the clutches of fear, but climb out of the situation as quickly as possible.
Let's take some time to address our fears, so they no longer control our minds and hearts, so we can live a full life together.
