About this episode

Hello everyone! Welcome to part two of my talk with the wonderful Tara Martin!If you missed part one, click here. 

We live in a world of clever marketing strategies, social media highlight reels, and the rise of AI. It’s hard to find much that’s real, let alone authentic, in our daily lives.

Yet over and over again, the people seeing the most success—whether that be personal or professional success—are the ones being authentically themselves. At least, that’s how we see it at Teach Me, Teacher.

To break down why this is and how to bring your true self into the classroom, I have brought on my friend Tara Martin. Tara is an enthusiastic educator, national speaker, and author who thrives on change and refuses to settle for the status quo. She has served as a classroom teacher, an instructional coach for several years, and most recently, a district administrator.

Enjoy!
