Welcome to Episode 3 of the unteachables podcast! Today one of my best teacher pals Chiara and I dig into some of the top tier memories, biggest struggles, and biggest triumphs of our first years of teaching together. Through our own experiences of our shared chaotic class, we reflect on what it takes to engage the most challenging to engage classes.
