Have you ever came in for the day having a bad morning and your students were completely off the charts? Or have you ever came in with the perfect morning ever and your students were absolute sweethearts?

It's no secret that the energy you bring to the work-day matters. Our students are a great amplifier of what kind of energy we are coming in the mornings with.

Which is why from the beginning of my teaching career I have had a consistent morning and leaving routine that has completely changed my teaching experience.

Today I am diving into what I do the first 15-minutes I come into school and what I do the last 15-minutes after school that has allowed me to consistently leave close to contract time for the past 5 years. 

Get a sneak peek on which administrative tasks I do daily, how I respond to emails, and how I prep for tomorrow's lesson in a way that allows me to show up confident and with a positive attitude each morning. 

This is part 3 of the leaving work on time series!

 One of the top questions I get asked is 'how do I automate my classroom?' Well today I'm talking about one of the MAIN strategies I myself and the teachers I have coached have used to make our classrooms run on autopilot. And that is utilizing classroom routines.

Classroom routines is one of my top strategies to consistently leaving at contract time as a new or first-year teacher. Inside this video we are diving into which classroom routines I set up in my classroom and how you can do the same. Making consistently leaving work on time in the first few years of your teaching career a breeze. 

We'll be talking about classroom routines like my classroom end-of-the-day procedure, what my weekly schedule looks like during my prep, how I organize my materials and how I KEEP things organized on a daily basis, what my coming in and leaving for the day routine looks like, and what I schedule out throughout the week to keep my life easier.

It's easy to believe that as a new or first-year teacher you have to work hours and hours after contract time to be a good teacher. But the truth is, that's simply not true.

Today we are diving into the top reasons WHY overworking won't make you a better teacher. Plus we dive into teacher time management strategies on what you can do instead. We cover strategies like preventing teacher burnout by getting clear on your definition of what a good teacher is and how to take action once you set a boundary in the classroom.

So you just completed your first or next teacher interview and you're wondering what you should do next.  This week we are diving into the different sections you should have in your follow-up email after your teacher interview.  In general I recommend following up with a district 1-2 weeks after the interview. You can even complete this the day of your interview and then schedule it out a week later so you don't have to worry about it. This same rule applies when you are following up on an application.   This week we also dive into why it's important to send a follow-up email after a teacher interview. I also tell you the 5 step process I use and the other teachers I work with use to creating the perfect teacher thank you email or teacher follow-up email.
