Hello! I'm back today with another episode all about the popular buzzword "asynchronous"! Love it or hate it, it's here and it's part of education as we know it.
Asynchronous learning is when you post your teaching material online for your virtual or hybrid students to self-study, which allows them to learn on their own schedule and at their own pace. In this episode, you will learn the benefits of asynchronous learning, some creative ideas for asynchronous activities that you can do in your hybrid/blended and distance learning classroom, as well as how to deliver effective morning meetings with asynchronous learning.

Tuesday Oct 15, 2019
You know how it is... you see the dreaded "unread" emails tab that has now crept up to 3 digits... You wonder how you will ever catch up and feel concerned over the emails you haven't yet seen and probably might never see, considering the time it's going to take to get through them all...
Now imagine this: when you open up your email inbox, there are only a few items in there. Every time you close your email, your inbox is always at 0. Always. You know exactly which emails you need to take action on, which you need to read, which you are waiting on someone else to reply as well as able to access those important ones you need to see all year round.
My friends, this is not just a dream. I am doing this. I found the secret formula! I am now 100% on top of all my emails 100% of the time! It's so easy when you know how and I am going to teach you. Tune into today's episode to learn my secret formula to taking control of your email inbox, once and for all!

Sunday Aug 18, 2019
Sunday Aug 18, 2019
Oh hey, I'm back! I hope you had a restful break if you were off and that you're raring to go this school year!
This episode is all about the secret to well-being for teachers. "Well-being" has become a bit of a buzz word recently, but in some cases the true essence has been watered down to basic advice like "have a bubble bath and drink wine" that isn't actually helpful...
In fact, well-being is so much more than just unwinding at the end of the day. In this episode you will learn what well-being really is and you'll gain actionable tips for how you can take control to maintain a positive well-being this school year!
This is lesson 1 of a brand new pod-course on the topic well-being for teachers. The rest of the lessons will be launched every week elsewhere. If you want to access all 7 lessons for free and you're here before August 25th 2019, you can sign up here:
