https://teachhoops.com/ The deterioration of fundamentals in the modern game is a direct result of the "Highlight Culture" that permeates youth and high school basketball. In an era where a player's "value" is often measured by their social media mixtape rather than their defensive win shares, the incentive structure has shifted. Players are spending thousands of hours practicing "deep threes" and "flashy handles" while ignoring the "Zero-Talent" fundamentals like boxing out, proper footwork on a closeout, and the simple chest pass. As a coach, you are fighting a battle against the "Instant Gratification" of the highlight reel. To reverse this trend, you must make fundamentals "cool" again by charting them and rewarding them with playing time, proving that the most fundamental team is almost always the last one standing in March. A major contributor to this decline is the disproportionate Game-to-Practice ratio found in many AAU circuits. When athletes play four games in a weekend but only practice once a week, they never develop the "Muscle Memory" required for elite execution. They are essentially "playing through" their mistakes rather than correcting them. This leads to "Dirty Reps"—poor shooting mechanics or lazy defensive stances that become baked into their game. To combat this, your practice environment must prioritize "High-Volume Rep Density." Instead of generic drills, utilize "Constraint-Based" teaching where players cannot move to the next segment until they demonstrate a perfect jump stop or a "two-handed" rebound. By making the "boring" basics a requirement for entry into the "fun" parts of practice, you raise the floor of your program's potential. Finally, the deterioration of fundamentals is often a failure of "Coach Clarity." If you aren't correcting a "travel" on a pivot in November, you shouldn't be surprised when it costs you a game in February. Fundamentals are "leaky"—if you don't constantly plug the holes, they will drain away. Use film study to show your players the direct link between a fundamental breakdown (like a missed box-out) and the resulting opponent basket. When players see that their "individual sloppiness" has a "team cost," they develop a sense of accountability. By doubling down on the "Basics of the Game" during the mid-season January grind, you aren't being "old school"—re-establishing these habits is a strategic advantage that will allow your team to out-execute more "talented" but less disciplined opponents.

ITP - 140 A Liverpool-born educator who once resisted teaching ends up saying yes to South Korea—and never looks back. Ken Bence traces an 18+ year arc from public-school TEFL to PGCE, then into a fast-growing bilingual school in Shanghai where rapid expansion pulled him into hiring, standards alignment, and early leadership. Seeking the IB bridge, he lands in Kuwait and grows into K–12 instructional coaching with the help of strong mentors, then tackles leadership fairs, multiple offers, and a vice head role that drops him back into China just as COVID reshapes borders and daily life. The journey continues through Shenzhen and Chengdu, a doctorate alongside principal work, and a brief interim senior leadership post in Budapest—plus practical rituals that make each new country feel like home: spices, quality bedding, and a folder of notes that keeps the purpose front and center.(00:00) Introduction to Ken Bence and His Journey(02:35) Cultural Shock and First Impressions in South Korea(06:53) Transitioning to Leadership Roles in Education(12:40) Exploring New Opportunities in Kuwait(17:37) Navigating Job Fairs and Networking in International Teaching(22:48) Navigating Career Pathways in Education(24:31) Midway-Contact Break(27:06) Cultural Shifts: Returning to China During COVID(29:59) Transitioning to Chengdu: New Challenges and Opportunities(32:55) Career Baby Steps: Progressing Through Education Roles(34:19) New Beginnings: Moving to Budapest(36:20) Preparing for Change: Leaving Budapest(40:29) The Emotional Journey of Teaching AbroadThe International Teacher Podcast is a bi-weekly discussion with experts in international education.

Two former international educators, Nick and Joy Owens, lay out what a lot of teachers secretly want to know: how to keep global education alive without staying trapped in the classroom forever. Their story runs through Taiwan, Honduras, Alaska, Arizona, and back to the U.S., and it's packed with the real-world stuff teachers actually deal with, like credential renewal, licensure headaches, Praxis retakes, and the post-COVID classroom burnout that can make even great teachers start plotting their escape.Nick describes getting started overseas in Taiwan after the 2008–2009 recession knocked his U.S. job out from under him, beginning with an intense English-immersion “summer camp” style program before moving into a growing school environment where he taught science and even launched AP-level courses. Joy's path begins with growing up in Zambia and schooling in Kenya, then jumping into teaching in Honduras with zero classroom experience, learning the hard way that classroom management is not optional, and later earning a master's in ESL before landing in Taiwan where she and Nick met.A big theme: teachers abroad can't ignore home-country paperwork. The conversation gets practical about how quickly licenses lapse and how painful it is to recover (including re-testing) if you let it slide. Then the episode pivots into their current chapter: they bought and now run Butler Travel, a teacher-informed travel agency that builds custom, education-focused student tours (not cookie-cutter packages), including options like homestays, local expert guides, service learning, and clear “all-in” pricing that parents can understand without getting ambushed by extra fees.They also talk through what actually makes student travel educational: structured learning goals, space for reflection, and the uncomfortable truth that too much downtime creates chaos, but zero downtime creates misery. Along the way you get a memorable safari lesson about risk awareness… via animal poop identification, because humans apparently need comedy to learn anything.Butler Travel contact mentioned in the episode: website butlertravel.com and their planning guide at butlertravel.com/plan.Stats Nick cites (attributed to “Wise Travel Federation” in the conversation):Students who travel show 59% improved grades95% graduation rate among students who participated in trips86% higher intellectual curiosity80% higher motivation and engagement[00:00] The Role of JP Mint Consulting[01:48] Nick and Joy's International Teaching Experiences[04:55] Cultural Shifts and Challenges in Teaching Abroad[07:53] Navigating Credentialing and Re-credentialing[10:47] The Importance of Keeping Credentials Updated[13:50] From Teaching to Travel: A New Journey[15:46] The Impact of Travel on Education[23:01] Customizing Educational Travel Experiences[30:53] Butler Travel: Tailored Tours for Teachers[39:12] Enriching Experiences with Local Expertise[40:03] Navigating Travel Logistics During Crisis[42:54] The Importance of Flexibility in Travel Planning[45:37] Understanding Educational Travel Needs[48:16] Memorable Travel Experiences and Stories[52:31] Essential Items for International Travel[55:54] Final Thoughts on Educational TravelAdditional Gems Related to Our Show:Greg's Favorite Video From Living Overseas - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UQWKBwzF-hwSignup to be our guest https://calendly.com/itpexpat/itp-interview?month=2025-01Our Website - https://www.itpexpat.com/Our FaceBook Group - https://www.facebook.com/groups/itpexpatJPMint Consulting Website - https://www.jpmintconsulting.com/Greg's Personal YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLs1B3Wc0wm6DR_99OS5SyzvuzENc-bBdOBooks By Gregory Lemoine:International Teacher Guide: Finding the "Right Fit" 2nd Edition (2025)"International Teaching: The Best-kept Secret in Education"

"You're a strong candidate, BUT you're just not the right fit." For senior executives, this phrase is one of the most common reasons job offers fall apart—and one of the least understood. In this episode, we break down what "not the right fit" actually means at leadership levels and why it has very little to do with your resume or qualifications. Senior hiring decisions are driven by trust and resonance, not credentials. You'll learn why highly polished, impressive candidates often lose to less-experienced ones, the difference between performance and recognition in interviews, and the three dimensions of resonance that determine who gets hired. If you keep making final rounds but not closing (or feel misaligned in roles that look perfect on paper) this episode will change how you approach your job search.

Give Matt Rhule credit. He's making the changes he needs to make.
We often make presumptive evaluations on who a person is, what their values are and whether we want to know them based on their appearance and clothing, because clothing impacts our identity. So it's important that when Jesus returned to heaven, He told believers that we would be clothed in power from on high...meaning HIs Holy Spirit. So we need to stayed clothed by deciding we want to represent Him well, making sure we are sincere and self-controlled.

Ever wondered if compassion and decisive leadership can coexist? In this powerful conversation with Cal Riley, combat veteran, EOS Implementer, and author of "Entrepreneurial Compassion," Cam and Otis explore what it really means to lead with both strength and heart."It's not compassionate to hold on to somebody if they're not a good fit," Cal explains, challenging the common misconception that compassionate leadership means avoiding tough decisions. "You're doing them a disservice. You're in pain. They're in pain... The whole team sees it."From discussing how EOS (Entrepreneurial Operating System) helps leaders understand that "not everybody is good at everything" to sharing his deeply personal mission to create a million compassionate leaders and prevent 100,000 suicides, Cal offers a refreshing perspective on leadership that balances accountability with genuine care.Whether you're a business owner struggling with difficult personnel decisions or a leader looking to create a healthier company culture, Cal's insights on entrepreneurial compassion provide a roadmap for leading differently. Plus, all proceeds from his book go to Stop Soldier Suicide—making this conversation not just informative, but potentially life-saving.More About Cal:Cal Riley is a leadership coach, entrepreneur, and combat veteran who teaches leaders how to serve with both strength and compassion.

ITP - 132 Tristan Reynolds beams in from Taiwan to explain how his startup school stops yappin' about “global citizens” and actually coaches students into action. Think project-based learning with real tools. Teachers act less like wind-up lecterns and more like pit-crew chiefs. The place is young, scrappy, and cosmopolitan enough to turn a literature class into a live fire exercise on language and identity. We detour through semiconductors, gym-hall ballot counting, and Taipei traffic that looks like Mario Kart with medical bills. A local cop cheerfully explains his job is to write the report after the crash, which, honestly, is the most on-brand public-sector energy we've heard in years. Between staff bouncing across continents and students mixing mother tongues like a cocktail, the through-line is simple: teach kids to actually do stuff together, then get out of the way. Also, Tristan never remembers a toothbrush, but he does remember the tiny teapot. Priorities? Just kidding! Tristan experiences countries through local-begotten, everyday items.Links from this show:Tristan's website: www.tristanreynolds.com Tristan Reynolds is an educator and writer who focuses on international best practices in education and the impacts of globalization on education.
