“I used to really like this show and I even shared one of the workshops offered to my principal for our English department. However, now it’s not worth the time listening because every episode feels like a tease, purchase more to get the information. I think these two ladies have so much to offer....”Read full review »

“These ladies care so passionately about helping teachers! Their discussions and banter give me time to focus on what matters in class, drill down to what is and is not working in my class, and reimagine new ways to reach my students! Thank you both so much!”

I joined their Happy Hour program to get the bonus podcasts and a discounted workshop, and I was unable to access...”Read full review »

It means a lot to us listeners that you trust us and that you want to help others struggling in the same way.

“I listen to Marie and Amanda every single week and always feel more inspired. They are down to earth, funny, and give me a realistic dose of how to improve my teaching. My only suggestion is to consider all the interruptions. Marie often cuts off Amanda and the other guests. Otherwise, it’s great.”
