In this episode, I sit down with Hailey Chisholm—educator, tutor, and fellow Westwood survivor. Hailey and I talk mentorship, what the most common academic concerns parents have for their children and how we assess for them, how building student confidence can make or break a learning experience, why teachers never feel like they have their sh*t together, how to stop being a perfectionist within teaching, the pros and cons of various practicum lengths, what student teachers are losing by not having a mentor teacher, how little information middle school students can actually handle, taking naps at school, starting a tutoring business and the process of building a website and reaching out to potential clients, and, much more.
