The ABC's High School Teachers Really Need to Know
This podcast was developed to help high school teachers better reach students, as well as gain more self-fulfillment by doing just that. We will discuss essential strategies and stories to help new, experienced, burned-out, and/or growth-focused teachers find their way in a world of confusing, endless, and oftentimes overwhelming resources for educators. Hopefully, you will find these both tangible and applicable in your own professional journey. This podcast is definitely not about “polish” and “pretty”. Instead, it’s about REAL strategies that have proven results in REAL classrooms. Thank you for taking the time to get better for your students. Most of all, thank you for being a teacher.

Episode #22: Vampire Teachers vs. Sunshine Warriors
Please stop judging teachers for working at night or whenever they are able to find time to be creative, innovative, productive, or anything else. Stop expecting teachers to think the same, act the same, or lead their classrooms the same. Collaborate without strings attached. Teachers have to be at their best as often as they can. If that means grading papers and fighting fires at 11pm for you, then great! If that means responding to emails as you eat your eggs with the sunrise for you, then great! Just don't expect me to have to do it too. Don't preach individuality in the classroom and then put teachers in a box.
