Do you want to do LESS as a teacher? 


This episode is about how doing less as a teacher can help our students to do more - while using our time to make the biggest impact possible. 

We are chatting about: 

  1. How talking less will give students more time to talk
  2. When you do less (like giving less problems) students can focus on thinking deeply about one or two problems
  3. Supporting students less allows students to build skills to productively struggle and be empowered to see what they CAN do.
