Two Guys in a Classroom

This episode the Two Guys discuss how they took on Distance Learning and what plans they have for the future of the podcast. 

Before you listen to this episode I HIGHLY recommend going back and listening to episode number 9 titled the Interview with the Creekmores.  This episode The Guys interview Mike and Nita Creekmore , the last episode we discussed how to say no and how to establish self-care.  In this episode we are going to discuss self-care, what balancing work and family looks like, and how to remain calm during the COVID 19 pandemic.   Enjoy!  

This episode Joseph Interviews his old gym teacher friend Andrew Mitts.  Joseph and Andrew worked together at the Normandy 7th and 8th Grade Center in St. Louis, MO, 2016-2017 school year.  Since then Andrew has become a full-time member of the Army National Guard and has begun a Youtube channel about exercise and fitness.  You can find his Youtube channel under Andrew Mitts Mitts Fitness.

This episode the Two Guys will be interviewing Mr. Jeremy Tate.  Mr. Tate is a Marching Band Director and science teacher in West TN.  He will be discussing what exactly putting together a marching band field show looks like, band camp, recruiting, and how he balances teaching science.  We thoroughly enjoyed this episode seeing as Mr. Tate was Joseph's band director in high school!  

This episode The Two Guys interviewed Captain Ashley Galmore.  Ms. Galmore has served numerous roles in the IL National Guard as well as the instructor for the Officer Candidate Program for the state of IL. She is currently working to transfer from being a recruiter for the National Guard to working the Jag side of the military.  The views in this podcast do not reflect the IL National Guard, the Army National Guard, the United States Army, the Traditional Army Officer Candidate Program, or Federal Army Officer Candidate Program. 

This episode Joseph discusses how he has been keeping his sanity during the COVID 19 quarantine. 

This episode Garrett and Joseph interview Sergeant First Class Arnold.  He is a member of the Illinois National Guard and an instructor for the Officer Candidate Program.  We discuss how teaching future Officers and leaders in the Army is a lot like teaching students in the classroom.

This episode The Two Guys interview Josh Ruse and he explains his teaching philosophy and the importance of PBIS in the classroom.   He also has his own podcast Classroom Success 101 Podcast Show.

This episode we had the pleasure of interviewing Ms. LaNesha Tabb.  She's the creator of Education with an Apron.  She is a kindergarten teacher who specializes in adding Social Studies to all of her lessons.  You can find her on Instagram and her website https://educationwithanapron.com/.

This episode Joseph goes through his way of relating America's stance on the French Revolution to students and how he is figuring out exactly how to teach writing in his classroom.  Enjoy!

This episode we have the honor and pleasure of interviewing Dr. Shaun Woodly.  He is a professor, educational consultant, writer, and even has his own podcast called Teach, Hustle, Inspire!  We were humbled and truly enjoyed this experience!  

Today's episode we interview Mr. Mike and Mrs. Nita Creekmore and how to not let the job of education get you stressed out.  They are huge proponents of self-care and focus on being able to say no and being okay with it!  They are two great people and I recommend following them on Instagram @bearded.school.counselor and @loveteachbless.  Please listen, share, and leave a review.  

This weeks episode we interviewd Mr. Dave Burgess author and founder of Teach Like a Pirate (TLAP).  The idea sounds crazy but it is more than just wearing an eye patch and jumping on a ship, it is about a passion for teaching and making the lesson come to life in the classroom!  Found out more about the Teach Like a Pirate philosophy at https://daveburgess.com/,

This episode is for any new teacher who may be nervous or for veteran teachers looking for new ideas.  Our guest today is Ms. Erin Smith, a first-year teacher, who is going to discuss what went well, what she learned, and what she wants to improve on.
