Breaking The Syllabus
Breaking the Syllabus is a podcast for educators who believe great teaching isn’t always found on the lesson plan. Hosted by Tyler Powell, this show explores what happens when we step away from rigid pacing guides and scripted curricula to follow curiosity, student voice, and the unpredictable moments that make real learning stick. Each episode features conversations with teachers, researchers, and thought leaders who are reimagining what classrooms can be — when we stop playing by the book.

Breaking The Syllabus
New Teachers, New School, and Bigger Problems
In this weeks episode we finish our conversation with Ryan Webb and we dive deep into the conversation around what happens when someone has bigger problems than not understanding classroom material! New teachers what do you need to know when entering a school mentor, material, colleagues, vision) where do you start? Teachers scared to talk with their administrators, teachers need connection, and how to face the battlefield together. Get parents in the room and I made my students stand or sit for an entire day.
