It is the new year and we have finally ditched the dumpster fire that was 2020. A lot of people have new year's resolutions at the start of every year. In fact, according to finder.com, about 74% of adults in the US make a new years resolution. The most popular of these resolutions revolve around: health, self-improvement, money, family, love, and/or career.
So I wanted to take a quick break on the teaching side of thi...
This season, we will continue to explore major topics in education, while we also expand on topics that don’t require you to have the knowledge of benchmarks, standards, and the overall need-to-knows of a classroom.

We will be covering three topics in today’s podcast: 1. The types of reading texts students are accessing today. 2. Should we be teaching literature that does not impact social relevance. And 3. Excerpts and their effectiveness in teaching skills and standards.
In honor of the presidential election here in the US, we wanted to talk about the true impact a sitting president has on us educators.

But the dilemma comes from the role that male teachers fill. 1) male teachers are treated differently than female teachers in the class and by parents and staff. But,...
According to the American Academy of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry, “Surveys show that ninety percent of teens ages 13-17 have used social media. Seventy five percent report having at least one active social media profile, and 51% report visiting a social media site at least daily. Two thirds of teens have their own mobile devices with internet capabilities. On average, teens are online almost nine hours a day, not inclu...
Welcome to another new episode of Those Who Can’t Do, a teacher podcast exploring all topics of education. My name is Gina and I am here with my husband, cohost, producer, and editor, Matt. We are also joined by two special guests today as we discuss the choices parents and children ultimately have to make between public, private, and charter schools.
What is there to say?
Public schools are cool.
So are private and charter. But we are here to decide which options benefit which types of students and teachers as we all try to understand what choices must be made in trying to best serve our children.
Thank you for 100 Listeners, and everyone else who is Listening but Can't Do. Here are 100 Teacher Tips for how to improve your classroom!
We are moving away from our usual podcasts on current events this week to talk about a major issue that is facing all of us younger teachers: The Burnout. We will be talking about the infamous 5 year teacher burnout, and the shocking 50% of teachers who leave the profession before they have the chance to start.
