Show Notes

In this episode, we talk to Lisa, a high school English Language Arts teacher who shares the importance of creating comfort, care and connections in the classroom. She tells many engaging stories about the lessons she has learned in the classroom such as the need for reflection, not taking things personally and modeling behaviors that students can trust and follow. Lisa had originally planned to be a lawyer, but as we know, the calling of the heart of a teacher always has other (lesson) plans! And children’s lives have been changed and blessed as a result!
