Season 2 has already given us so many conversations that made us laugh, think, and rethink how we show up as educators.

In this “best of” collection, we’re pulling some of the most insightful moments from our incredible guests!

Domenic Scuglia reminds us that teaching is an evolving journey. He shares how we rewrite new versions of ourselves each year, create conditions for real critical thinking, and design classrooms where every student truly feels welcome.

Dr. Darryn DiFrancesco reframes student pushback, showing us how challenges are often about their growth, not ours. She talks about embracing humility, letting students seek out answers, and building trust through honesty.

Danielle Tighe highlights the power of knowing your campus. From student awards to support services, she shares why new instructors especially need to understand institutional resources to avoid misguiding students.

Dr. Joey Brown brings a candid conversation about AI, cheating, and “knowledge debt.” He reminds us that learning requires failure, and not every assignment needs a grade for growth to happen.

Paul Tedesco closes us out with energy! Chatting about improv, public speaking, and the vulnerable, very real nerves we all feel walking into the classroom. His message: adults can have fun and learn too.
