Episode 61: A Special Teacher Wowza!! Grab your Kleenex before pushing play on this one!What an amazing and impactful episode this is.This week's guest is another fellow podcaster and special education teacher. I didn't have any idea when I created my podcast that there were so many podcasts hosted by special education teachers, but this podcaster has a different story from the majority of us.Paul Hubbard is a special education teacher, but he is able to see the field of special education through a different lens than most of us because he has some of the same characteristics as some of our students.Paul's story is both heartwarming and inspirational. Listen in as he shares how he was diagnosed with ADHD and Dyslexia and how the power of just a few key individuals in his life put him on a path to eventually become a special education teacher and help students just like him.His story really hits home and makes you stop and think about what kind of impact you could (should) be making on your students and I'm so thankful that I had the opportunity to share Paul's story with you.Paul Hubbard has provided over 30 Professional Developments on technology integration in his school district. He is a Google Certified Teacher pursuing his master's degree in educational technology.  During the remote learning, Paul initiated weekly video announcements to promote a sense of normalcy with students school wide. He now produces daily announcements, and has become a role model for all the students in his school through career education, reinforcement of expectations, and positive lighthearted fun. Paul also has written and received over eight educational grants for his classroom and school. In his free time, he works on restoring his 130-year-old home with his wife Brianna, and puppy Lilo. I'd love it if you'd connect with Paul:Follow him on Instagram orListen to his Podcast: Special Odducation

Andersen, a high school American Sign Language (ASL) teacher at Ocean City High School in Cape May County, has been named the 2018 New Jersey State Teacher of the Year. Andersen, who was named the 2017-18 Cape May County Teacher of the Year in the spring, grew up in Cape May County. She earned a bachelor’s degree in flute performance from Indiana University and a mas- ter’s degree in deaf education from McDaniel College. Andersen also achieved national board certification in Exceptional Needs Specialist: Deaf/Hard of Hearing. After nine years in Boston, Massachusetts as a teacher of the deaf, she returned to New Jersey in 2004 to raise a family. It was then, with 42 students, that Andersen began the ASL program at Ocean City High School. Community oriented activities, such as ASL socials at local coffee shops and evening performances that raise funds for scholarships immerse students in deaf culture helping them to build confidence. In the past three years alone, more than 85 percent of her students have achieved the NJ Seal of Biliteracy. Her popular and respected program has inspired a number of students to pursue ASL-related careers, including interpreting for Michelle Obama and Madonna. Ocean City’s ASL program is unique, especially in the way Andersen connects her students to the deaf community nationwide. Ocean City has become a strong community that is now accessible to hearing and deaf visitors because of Andersen’s students. Andersen is a nationally recognized educator who began her career teaching deaf children to fall in love with reading. She now teaches hearing children to fall in love with ASL. Among her many recognitions, Andersen was named the 2014 ASL Teacher of the Year and was honored by the New Jersey Association for the Deaf and Atlantic County Society for the Deaf. In 2015, “Classroom Close-Up NJ” highlighted her program after her students’ ASL anti-bullying video went viral. As Ocean City’s Teacher of the Year, Andersen was featured in the NJ School Board Association’s School Leader and was recently honored by the National Liberty Museum with the Teacher as Hero: Exceptional Teacher Award. Andersen has made a difference in the lives of her students, and she serves as a model for teachers throughout the country. She ignites her students’ passion for learning, gives them a voice and shows them their voice is valuable. Andersen’s students go out into the world as lifelong learners making bridges between cultures, embracing differences in those around them, and changing lives as they go.  Show Hosts Sean Spiller Sean Spiller, a high school science teacher in the Wayne public schools, is vice president of the New Jersey Education Association.

Welcome to Member Voices, an NJEA Podcast.  In this episode, we welcome 2018-19 New Jersey State Teacher of the Year Jennifer Skomial on the program. This weeks question is: Question:   How Important Are Teacher Training Programs?  Follow our Hosts Sean M. Spiller | @SpillerForNJEA Jeff Bradbury | @JeffBradbury About Our Guest: Jennifer Skomial Jennifer Skomial is a Career and Technical Education Teacher at Morris County School of Technology and the 2018-19 New Jersey State Teacher of the Year. Jennifer Skomial, like many others in the profession, has always wanted to be a teacher. Her earliest memories include “playing school” with her younger brother, whom she needed to bribe to have a willing student. Not a day went by that she wasn’t eagerly practicing what she believes has been her life’s purpose. Jennifer is driven to encourage more students to go into the teaching field that she holds so dear.  While many of the students she works with may not become early-childhood teachers, she knows that the exposure she provides them through hands-on experience in the on-site preschool, field trips, and guest speakers will help them determine their future paths.   Subscribe to Member Voices We are proud to be listed in the iTunes Directory.
