Speaking & Professional Learning
Professional learning that respects the reality of teaching.
I speak with educators about classroom culture, engagement, teacher well-being, leadership, and what it takes to keep doing meaningful work in a profession that asks a lot of people.
See me present
This video gives you a feel for how I communicate with educators: practical, energetic, reflective, and grounded in classroom experience.
Topics I speak about
Classroom Culture & Engagement
Building relationships, increasing student participation, creating memorable learning experiences, and making engagement part of everyday instruction.
Teacher Well-Being & Retention
Burnout, moral injury, boundaries, resilience, and how schools can better support good educators who want to remain in the profession.
Leadership & School Culture
The daily decisions, communication habits, and relational practices that shape whether educators feel trusted, supported, and able to grow.
Student Voice & Ownership
Helping students participate, lead, reflect, communicate, and become active contributors to their own learning.
What you can expect
I do not believe professional learning should feel disconnected from the classroom. My goal is to give educators ideas they can actually use while also creating space for the honest conversations that matter: what is working, what is wearing people down, and what helps us keep getting better.
Sessions can be shaped for schools, districts, educator groups, conferences, and college or university audiences.
