Excellent New Teacher Support
As soon as I saw “for new and beginning teachers” I was drawn to this podcast simply to have all of the different questions I might come across answered. My biggest struggle right now, like every other new teacher, is classroom management, so the tips and whole segments regarding different strategies to use helps tremendously. In particular, the simplification of how to start using these strategies for first year teachers was really memorable and helpful as it can be daunting to start a complex system off the bat while trying to juggle everything else that comes with acclimating to teaching. Hearing from educators who have implemented such systems and have worked and talked with teachers in other schools who have tried it and made modifications is also tremendously helpful. It is one thing to hear, from a research standpoint, about what to do- but the difference is made when hearing personal stories and experiences, from troubleshooting and changing things, to how to engage students who are not motivated even with a system that is meant to draw everyone in. In particular, it really resonated with me when it was mentioned that there are times that a few students will still not be as engaged, no matter what the teacher does- it is not the teacher’s fault, but it just supported the belief that there will be times that you can do everything “right” and still have struggles with getting 100% commitment. This podcast is truly relatable and helpful, and gives advice and strategies by empowering teachers to try new things, instead of motivating through guilt for needing help.

It seems like many education podcasts are done by former teachers no longer in the classroom. I like that Kim is still actively teaching while she shares her years of experience. Excellent podcast!

Despite this being my tenth year in the classroom, I find so much value in this podcast designed for beginning teachers. We’re always learning, right? This podcast helps us ensure that happens.
