In this episode, Dr. Almitra Berry welcomes Dr. Dana Goodier, an educational powerhouse with 23 years of experience. Dr. Dana Goodier has taught World Languages and English and worked as a middle school administrator. She completed her doctorate degree (Ed.D.) in Educational Leadership early 2020, researching reasons parents were opting their students out of high-stakes testing. Dr. Goodier often speaks at conferences, providing educators with techniques to minimize off-task behavior and increase time on task. She is the host of the "Out of the Trenches" podcast and has written the book "Out of the Trenches: Stories of Resilient Educators," which features her own story intertwined with other educators' experiences. They discuss Dr. Goodier's pivotal moment that sparked her interest in world languages, her transition from classroom teaching to school leadership, and the unique challenges women leaders face in education. Dr. Goodier also shares insights on supporting multilingual learners and educator well-being. Follow her on Twitter @danagoodier and visit her website at www.danagoodier.com.
