Welcome to a brave space to discuss teaching matters through the belief that good, soulful teaching really does matter.   In this space, we are curators of culturally responsive teaching and leadership spaces where we believe in the power of student engagement, teacher self-efficacy, and strong professional development that matters!

In this episode, Dr. Mel breaks down the definition of good teaching:  attending to peoples' needs, experiences, and feelings.  

Tap in and listen to how we can align our intentions to meet impact through soulful teaching.  

How do we attend to the needs of the emotional brain? 
What is the connection between culturally responsive teaching and information processing in the brain? 
Why are establishing and sustaining boundaries important to soulful teaching?
