Educator by day comedian by night!
Welcome back to this week's episode of Hot Mess, where the world of teaching meets the hilarity of everyday life! I'm Jess Smith, and joining me today is the wonderful Andrea Forcum. Buckle up, because we're about to take a deep dive into Andrea's journey from classroom to comedy, and the impact she's made along the way.
Andrea kicks things off with a hilarious recount of attending the Bored Teacher Comedy Tour. A night of laughs, teacher jokes, and getting recognized for the first time! She shares how this experience shaped her approach to comedy, inspired by the likes of Andrea Caspari, and how she artfully treads the fine line of pushing the envelope as a comedian.
Andrea then takes us on a journey back to the start of her teaching career. Imagine transitioning from the grocery store aisles to the school hallways.
She dives into the meaningful change which she is striving to make in the teaching industry and how she's left a lasting impression on her school. She's a staunch advocate against the 'teacher quit Tok' trend, promoting a positive yet realistic perspective of teacher life, addressing the real struggles and obstacles educators face.
And if you've ever wondered about the difference between K-12 and college classrooms, Andrea's got some insights that are as enlightening as they are entertaining.
So, don't miss out on this inspiring and amusing episode of The Hot Mess Teacher Express. Join us as we explore the world of teaching with a twist of comedy. It's an episode that promises laughs, learning, and a whole lot of teacher talk.
