Jonathan Alsheimer is back on the podcast, and this conversation is every bit as powerful as his first appearance.
If you missed part 1, check it out here.
We dig into what it really means to show up for kids—not just being present in the room, but being fully engaged, intentional, and committed to their success. Jonathan shares how building strong, authentic relationships can transform not only the classroom environment, but also the learning that happens within it.
We also tackle one of the biggest balancing acts in education: delivering rigorous, meaningful content while also teaching the life skills, resilience, and character our students need beyond school walls.
If you enjoyed our first conversation, you’ll love this one even more. It’s a reminder that great teaching isn’t just about the curriculum—it’s about the connection.
