You have probably heard the saying, “It takes a village to raise a child” but what if we applied this to teaching? Kylie Altier has explored this exact idea of it taking a “village” to educate a child and what she discovered was career changing!

Throughout today’s episode Kylie shares how she has gone about this transformation of building a village outside the four walls of her classroom and sprinkles through some amazing stories of how doing this has impacted her and her students. 

Not only that, Kylie shares 5 ways that you can also follow her lead and start to build your own village. We talk about:

• Asking for help
• Look near and far for villagers
• Varying requests of potential ‘villagers’
• Be an open door
• Expressing gratitude

The passion and fire for creating lifelong learners in her classroom is so compelling throughout this episode. It is one that will get you feeling pumped up and inspired (it did for us!)
