Welcome back to Special Education for Beginners! Today’s episode is a special one as we close out our beloved "Ask Us Anything" series with my incredible co-host, Paul. After two amazing years of working together, including 11 months of answering your burning questions about special education, Paul and I are wrapping up this chapter of the podcast.

We’ve tackled everything from scheduling nightmares and behavior strategies to managing paraprofessionals and navigating IEPs. Through it all, we’ve shared laughs, tears, and plenty of honest, real-life insights into the world of special education.

This series has been such an important part of the podcast, but as Paul transitions out of the field of special education, it’s time to say goodbye to this segment. I’m so grateful for everything Paul has brought to the show—his humor, wisdom, and unique perspective will be deeply missed.

But we couldn’t let our final episode together be all tears and goodbyes. Instead, we’re sending the series off with a bang! This episode features a rapid-fire Q&A session where Paul and I ask each other quick, easily answerable questions. We’ve mixed in thoughtful topics, funny moments, and a few lighthearted surprises.

Here’s a sneak peek at what we cover:

• The funniest thing a student has ever brought into the classroom
• Our least favorite professional development buzzwords.
• If our teaching styles were foods, what would they be?
• What we’d rename the role of paraprofessional—if we would at all.
• Our dream superpowers for the classroom.
• And so much more!

We wanted this final "Ask Us Anything" to feel like a celebration of the journey we’ve been on together and the connections we’ve made with all of you, our listeners. Grab your coffee, settle in, and join us for one last fun-filled conversation with Paul.

Stay Connected: This may be the end of "Ask Us Anything," but the podcast will continue to provide insights, tips, and support for special education teachers. Follow along for upcoming episodes and exciting new content!
