  • NECESSARY for all educators!

    Dr. Eakins covers everything that educators of today need to know if they’re serious about making a difference in the lives of ALL children. This podcast shows how educators can break through cultural, linguistic and socioeconomic barriers to make sure that all their students leave the classroom feeling empowered and able to grasp the material. If I were a principal, I’d send episodes of this podcast to my staff on a regular basis!

  • A MUST for Educators!

    I can’t recommend this podcast series enough for both current and prospective educators. I’ve learned, changed, and implemented so many new ideas and perspectives in my work in order to be better for myself, students, and colleagues. Sheldon, the host, feels like a long-term peer trying to provide the best, unbiased advice possible. This series is apart of my Monday commute and I look forward to it every week! Thank you, Sheldon!

  • Invaluable Note-worthy guidance

    Thankyou so much for guiding me in my anti racism journey. I am an art teacher in a predominantly white rural school district. I feel it is imperative that my students learn to be anti-rascist citizens of the world. I have stopped while listening to make many notes because your information is so valuable.
