Show Notes

In this episode, I talk to Krista and Sandrine, two college professors who are PFFs (professional friends forever). These lovely ladies will have you laughing out loud as they share their stories of partnership and collaboration on special projects and professional development  “adventures” together. They support, encourage and help each other survive, grow and thrive through the challenges of teaching. They remind us to not let social media or “super teacher” stories make us feel defeated or not good at our jobs. There should be no professional jealousy, competition, insecurities of not being enough or being left behind. Everyone has something to offer, and we can all learn from each other. We are better together, stronger together and in this together! And Krista and Sandrine practice what they preach!  Together, they will lighten your spirit with laughter and enlighten your teaching with real best practices.
