About the Podcast

The Lesson Lab: Excite Your Classroom, Streamline Your Teaching & Ditch Educator Stress
Are you at your wit’s end in education? Tired of unruly children & boring lessons?

This show helps educators who are burned out from lesson planning and grading for hours & hours at work & at home all to comeback & teach the same boring lessons over and over again.

Listen to discover how to create lessons that will engage your students, encourage creativity & most of all, give you your time back with efficient & effective grading strategies.

After teaching for hundreds of hours, training dozens of teachers, & visiting countless classrooms, I’ve discovered that engaging students in meaningful, impactful lesson cuts down on behavior problems & absenteeism. Moreover, this doesn’t need to cost the teacher their nights & weekends with their family & friends.

Every Monday will introduce his current lesson and use his rubric (The Gauntlet) to decide if his lessons are engaging for students & time-saving teachers. He’ll be a LIVE PLC each week. Every Thursday he’ll use his rubric (The Reflection) to reflect on the previous episode’s lesson(s) to see if the goals were met for that lesson(s).

If you’re ready to finally break out of the cycle of boring lessons, disengaged students, & never-ending grading. Tune in twice a week to get the answers you’re looking for to bring your classroom back to life.
