Description:

Every experienced teacher remembers their first year. There was the exhaustion, the second-guessing, and the feeling that classroom management was something everyone else understood except you. That's why it's so valuable for beginning teachers to learn from those who have been in the classroom for years. In my opinion, there's no better veteran teacher to learn from than Melissa Antinoff. Melissa is a career educator and the creator behind "The Well-Seasoned Teacher". Melissa joins the episode to share her best classroom management advice for beginning teachers, along with practical strategies for navigating today's classrooms. She also addresses some of the biggest challenges teachers face today, including the growing gap in students' non-academic skills and how teachers can intentionally support those needs.
