The Continuing Educator
A math teacher and a professional learning pro bring a blast of fresh air to educators everywhere, every week!
Here's what makes this teaching podcast different: We have big ideas about education AND we know how to put them to work in your classroom AND we'll tell you funny stories about doing it. Every episode is packed with tips from your peers working in schools right now and strategies from the pros on the professional learning team at NWEA. Plus, our co-hosts Jacob Bruno (EVP of Learning & Improvement Services at NWEA) and Kailey Rhodes (middle school math teacher in Portland) guarantee that you will laugh at least 12.8 times per episode.
If you've got a comment about an episode or a funny story you want to tell, send us a voice memo at social.media@nwea.org and we might respond on air. AND!

Which back-to-school Barbie are you? With Shelby Coffin & Olivia Rocamora
Send your back-to-school tips as a voice memo to social.media@nwea.org — we’ll play them on air. Lots of great teaching stories and tips in this one! Two teachers (and longtime friends) join Kailey to get the tea on getting back to school. They talk back-to-school routines, first week tips, introducing yourself to new families, hitting the wall, relationship-centered learning, and more. And of course: What’s on your back-to-school playlist? Thanks to our guests: Shelby Coffin, ELA teacher @ Decatur High School, and Olivia Rocamora, high school Spanish teacher @ the Weber School.
