The Educator's Mindset

Hey teacher friend! I’m so excited you’re here today because I’m sitting down with intervention specialist and author Melinda Arnost. Melinda is a bright and bubbly educator on a mission to help teachers embrace inclusion in all settings. In this episode we chat about inclusion and Melinda shares advice and some beginning of the year activities that can help ALL students feel included in the classroom. 

Are you teaching in an inclusive setting? Let's connect! We'd love to hear what you think of our episode!

Hey teacher friend! Welcome back! Today I have an extra juicy topic which you already know because you saw the title! But yes, that’s right, we are talking about the Teachergram today! For this topic, I decided to invite Heather Lindenmeyer who is a former fashion blogger and current high school English teacher. I love her insight about the Teachergram, so i’m really excited to jump into this with you.

In this episode we talk about the positives and potential negatives of the teacher community on Instagram. Overall, we both really love the Teachergram, but do think it's important to be mindful of using it, especially if it makes you feel anything short of amazing! 

What do you think about the Teachergram? Let's chat! We'd love to hear your thoughts! Erin @the.educators.mindset and Heather @mrshlindenmeyer

Today is my birthday! Woot woot! So I thought what better day to talk about celebrating birthdays in the classroom. Growing up, my birthday was never celebrated at school and it always bummed me out. In this short and sweet episode, I talk about how to honor students' preferences with celebrating birthdays, and how to include everyone even if their birthday does not happen during the school year. I also share a few cheap and free ideas for birthday celebrations. I'd love to hear what you think so send me a DM on Instagram (@the.educators.mindset) or email me at [email protected]

Are you getting ready to interview? Or remember the first time you interviewed? It is nerve-wracking! I remember my first interview like it was yesterday and boy was I unprepared!

In this episode, I wanted to share some insight into some different stages of interviewing now that I have experience both as an interviewer and an interviewee. Check it out and share it with your teacher friends who are interviewing! I always appreciate hearing your thoughts, so shoot me a DM on Insta and let me know what you think!

Have you been struggling with establishing or maintaining boundaries? Or are you unsure if you need to set more boundaries? If so, this episode is for you!

In this episode, we discuss some different layers that are involved in setting boundaries, why it can be difficult to set them, and some suggestions on how to take action (even if it's scary!). My hope is that this episode leaves you feeling empowered to set new boundaries for yourself or keep up the ones you already have in place.

I'd love to hear what you think of this episode, so send me a message on Instagram (@the.educators.mindset), or an email ([email protected]). I look forward to connecting!

Happy Tuesday my friend and welcome back to the EMP! For today's episode, I invited tutoring biz wiz, Jennifer Lemaitre, to share about her teaching journey and what led her to creating GEM Tutoring. Tutoring is a great option for teachers who are looking to get more experience, check out new grade levels/ages, help students grow, and make some money in the process! Jenn shares some great tips for teachers thinking about tutoring, so check it out! If you'd like to connect with Jenn, click here!
