Neely Trull's grandmother was a local celebrity — but maybe not the kind you would think. She spent 28 years working as an educator, making a positive impact on their community. So, when Neely was asked what she wanted to be when she grew up, it was always a "no-brainer" that she would follow in those family footsteps.
In this episode, Neely — an early childhood educator in South Carolina — discusses her experiences through 3 years of teaching, why caring about students on a level of "hearts and souls" matters just as much as their grades, and the reality of the hard times that come with being an educator.
Neely's story will touch new and experienced teachers alike, and leave you refreshed and energized to inspire students in the classroom and beyond.
