In this episode, I share some personal stories about how family losses have shaped my perspective on life and the long game of this career. I talk about the hilarious and unique challenges of teaching middle school in the month of May—especially when it comes to classroom management and student behavior—my hate for reading fiction, and why understanding different educational systems can make us better at what we do. Looking ahead, I share my thoughts on educational leadership and take on some common myths about private and charter schools. Lastly, as I prepare to become a parent myself, I reflect on how I would respond to teacher feedback if they were to say my child was struggling in school in some way.
