  • Highly recommend

    I absolutely love listening and I’ve been teaching for over 30 years, but there is ALWAYS something to learn from these two ladies. I am also a mentor teacher and I have shared your podcast with all of my mentees as well as every teacher I meet. You two keep being your genuine selves. I took a break from the classroom for 9 years and served as a Teacher on Special Assignment, what Bridget does. I loved it and all that I learned from it, but I missed the kids so much, I returned as a TK dual l... more

  • Very helpful!

    I started following Michelle on her YouTube channel during the pandemic and she always breaks down tech things for teachers so well. I have just started listening to this podcast and it is delightful to listen to. It helped me get through a long drive with my five year old and has taught me a lot about organization, time hacks and apps as well as books and movies to look into in the few episodes I have listened to. It is so nice to hear their two perspectives. Thank you Michelle and Bridget!

  • 30 years teaching and ❤️ these girls!

    I have been teaching for 32 years and listening for your entire 5 years and have learned so much from you both. I’m a bit sad you went to 2 podcasts a month but honestly understand completely! Bridgette, my word for the years is “strong” also. You’ve got this, girl!

  • Bridget LEAVE Michelle

    Bridget - YOU are better and more emotionally intelligent than Michelle. You wanted to end this podcast for a reason - END IT. Michelle you are so unbelievably insufferable and high and mighty for NO REASON. For two friends who seem to have no meaningful relationship now Michelle treats Bridget like SCUM.

  • Great podcast for new and “seasoned” teachers

    I always feel uplifted and motivated after finishing each episode. These are ladies who actually love teaching and help others by making the work more manageable. If you are looking for a podcast that leaves you feeling good about being a teacher and finding ways to feel less overwhelmed, start here.

    I know you are releasing episodes every other week right now, but may I suggest rereleasing “best of” episodes in between. For example episodes about planning- long term, unit, templates and daily... more
