Starting out as a new teacher can feel overwhelming—and knowing where to focus your energy is half the battle. In this episode, I’m breaking down four of the biggest mistakes I made early in my teaching career. Whether you're brand new or just trying to level up your classroom game, you'll walk away with practical tips, honest insights, and a little encouragement to help you teach your class off.

What You’ll Learn:
– Why being "nice" isn't the same as being effective
– How classroom management mistakes sneak up on you
