Recorded from Panama City on the day of arrival, this episode of Our Classroom is a quiet, journal-style reflection on what it means to teach while still orienting—emotionally, mentally, and spiritually.

Host Roberto Germán explores the idea of arrival as both a physical and professional experience. Through travel, observation, and humility, he draws parallels between navigating a new place and navigating the uncertainty many educators are facing right now.

This episode isn’t about answers or strategies. It’s about permission—to slow down, to pay attention, and to remain human in the work.

Teach in Truth.

If you’re looking for a space to continue reflecting, learning, and navigating uncertainty alongside other educators committed to equity, truth, and impact, you’re invited to explore My Classroom Gold.
