We’ve created hundreds of engaging lessons & hands-on resources, workshops plus digital courses with step-by-step guides, and a membership specifically designed to support and empower new teachers.

What is the key to success as a beginning teacher? Today we are talking with Vanessa, and she strongly feels that asking for help will propel you forward to become a confident first year teacher (and we agree). It isn’t always easy asking for help but as Vanessa says, progress is the goal and getting the support we need is a much quicker way to get closer to that goal.
Vanessa sees any challenge she has faced so far in her teaching degree as an adventure, and we love this mindset. She talks about how the beginning of her career was memorable, rewarding, and eye-opening, how she developed relationships with her students, and how she dealt with behaviour as a casual teacher PLUS some of her favourite go-to resources (they are all linked below).
If you are a new teacher, a casual teacher or just a teacher who is looking for a little confidence, don’t skip past this episode.
If you know a teacher that’s relief or casual teaching, share this episode with them.
Rainbows ahead,
Ashleigh and Alisha
