Hot Mess Teacher Express Podcast
Comedy:Comedy Interviews
The Hot Mess Teacher Express with Vinny and Jess is pulling into the station to cover one of the thorniest issues in teaching - letting students fail. Vinny gives us some real talk about how student failure often feels like a reflection on us as teachers. But we are here to tell you, it's not always about us.
We ponder the question of whether failure is really a part of growth. After all, isn't it soul crushing to fail at something the first time? But, it's often a crucial step on the path to learning and success.
We also dive into the hotly debated topic of discipline, comparing our experiences in the US vs. the UK. From maintaining classroom order to managing serious infractions, we share our thoughts on when to give a stern look, when to have a chat, and when the law needs to step in.
In our beloved "Hot or Not" segment, we discuss those brave souls who call out other students for their behavior. We can't help but chuckle at students who handle classroom disruptions in their own unique way. Oh, and let's not forget about those classroom farters. Yes, we're talking about you!
In "Grinds Our Gears", Vinny lets it rip on incessant spam callers, and Jess can’t handle that awkward jog you do when someone holds the door open for you. Is it a sprint? Is it a walk? Who knows!
And finally, in "Underdogs in Education", we give a big shout-out to the true unsung heroes of school systems across the country - Case Managers.
So settle in and join us on this wild ride through the world of teaching. Remember, when it comes to students failing, we're all in this together!
Choo! Choo!
