#123: How to stand tall and confident in front of your class (even in the midst of some tough as heck behaviours)


Listen Later

One thing nobody tells you before you step into a classroom is just how much behaviour will challenge you. Not just your strategies. You. Your nervous system. Your confidence. Your sense of self.

In this episode, I’m talking about what it really feels like to manage behaviour in the moment – especially when you’re young, new, or not naturally loud or assertive. And I’ll walk you through some of the exact strategies I used to build confidence in my classroom management without changing who I am.

IN THIS EPISODE, I DISCUSS:

  • Why behaviour hits us so hard (and what nobody prepares us for)
  • How to feel confident even if you’re quiet, calm, or brand new
  • The 3 non-verbal strategies that completely shift your presence
  • How to “embody the credible” and model calm, consistent leadership
