#24: New Teacher? This Will Make Your Life Easier with Ashleigh Smith
Did you know that 50% of teachers leave the profession within the first five years? It’s crazy, but true. Whether you’re a brand new teacher or are a bona fide veteran looking to make teaching more sustainable, this episode is for you.
I’m joined by Ashleigh Smith, a 20 year veteran and the co-founder of Rainbow Sky Creations – a community dedicated to helping new teachers THRIVE.
Ashleigh is spilling the beans on all the essential teacher things including classroom management, work-life balance, and creating a support network so you don’t have to figure everything out on your own.
IN THIS EPISODE, we’ll talk about…
- Simple time management strategies that will help you take back your work-life balance once and for all
- How to build a supportive teacher village… even if you feel like you’re on a private island all by yourself right now
- How to stop teacher burnout before it starts
