When Kelly volunteered to be the head coach for his son's baseball team, he was nervous. He had no formal training, but he knew he wanted his players to have equal playing time—and have fun. Which they did, until the yelling started and the season ended in a stunning loss (and quite a few tears). What can Kelly do better next season? In this encore episode of How To! from 2021, Amanda Ripley connects Kelly with Doug Lemov, author of Teach Like a Champion and The Coach's Guide to Teaching. Doug shares some fantastic advice for commanding attention (and managing failure) that we can all learn from, on or off the field. If you liked this episode, check out Congrats, You Won the Olympics.

Mike Palmer welcomes Doug Lemov, founder of Teach Like a Champion, to the podcast. Lemov discusses his journey from teacher to education innovator and the evolution of Teach Like a Champion. He highlights the importance of the new book, The Teach Like a Champion Guide to the Science of Reading, co-authored with Colleen Driggs and Erica Woolway. The conversation delves into the critical role of attention in reading, the impact of technology on cognition, and the power of shared reading experiences in the classroom. Lemov also explains the significance of close reading and knowledge-based comprehension, advocating for bringing complex texts, whole books, and writing back into the classroom. Key Takeaways: The Science of Reading: The importance of understanding the research behind reading acquisition and applying it to teaching practices beyond early elementary grades. Attention in the Digital Age: How screens and social media fragment attention, and the need to rebuild students' capacity for sustained concentration through practices like reading physical books and extended reading periods. The Social Nature of Reading: The value of shared reading experiences in fostering connection, meaning-making, and enjoyment, contrasting with individual, choice-based reading that can isolate students. Knowledge-Driven Comprehension: The understanding that reading comprehension is primarily driven by background knowledge, not just transferable skills, emphasizing the need to build students' knowledge base to improve their understanding of complex texts. The Power of Writing: The benefits of slow, durable, and difficult writing in the classroom for deep thinking, memory encoding, and improved discussion, especially in contrast to the shortcuts offered by AI. Why You Should Listen: Discover how to reignite joy and meaning in the classroom by understanding the science of reading and practical strategies for improving student comprehension and engagement. Doug shares insights on combating the challenges of modern attention spans and leveraging the power of shared experiences and knowledge-building to cultivate lifelong readers.

Today, we're catching up with my friend, and friend of the podcast, Flint Del Sol.Last time Flint was here, his life looked very different than it does today. He was mid-transition, using they/them pronouns, had just started testosterone, and was still teaching. Since then, he's come out, transitioned in public on his social media profiles, survived doxxings, and received bomb threats at the school where he taught.It's been a lot.He chose to leave teaching and move to the desert with his husband for a while, and they've just recently sold their belongings and moved into an airstream with a plan to travel around the country to meet other trans people and gather stories and information to capture the trans experience in the US at this especially challenging and frightening time. And somehow in all of that, Flint also wrote a book called Teach Like an Ally that comes out on July 29, 2025. This book was written for educators who are struggling in environments where they can't openly state their allyship, can't fly rainbow flags, or can't teach or even have queer books in their classrooms. Even if you're not a teacher, this book will help you be a better ally to the queer kids in your life.Every time I talk to Flint, the conversation tends to go off in a million different directions, but it always ends up someplace super nerdy, and someplace deeply emotional. This one is no different. I hope you leave feeling as inspired and ready to do better work as I did.Check out the full episode to hear about:How having survived blowing up his own life before has shaped Flint's relationship to changeHow genuine curiosity and judgment get confused in ourselves and othersWhy it's totally normal to be at reduced capacity right now, and some ideas to help sustain youWhy even in an unfair, unjust world, it's worth continuing to fight for justiceHow deadlines, outlines, and leaning into his unique voice got Flint to the final draftWhy kids need access to an understanding of queer existence that is not fueled by negativity and hateHow making art is an essential part of how Flint processes events and feelingsFind out more about Flint Del Sol:Instagram: @justflintisfineTikTok: @justflintisfineTeach Like an Ally: An Educator's Guide to Nurturing LGBTQ+ StudentsFind out more about Mackenzie Dunham:Wildheartsociety.orgwildheartsociety.org/downloadsWild Heart Society on FacebookWild Heart Society on InstagramResources:Register for CampDonate to the Queer Community NetworkWild Heart Society MerchSeason 04 Ep 03: Fear vs. Curiosity: Being Alive and Trans with Flint, Just Flint Part 1Season 04 Ep 04: Fear vs. Curiosity: Being Alive and Trans with Flint, Just Flint Part 2"Untitled" (Portrait of Ross in L.A.), Félix González-TorresThe Smithsonian's queer erasure of an AIDS artwork should alarm us allGood Bones, Maggie Smith

In this conversation, Brendan Lee speaks with James Dobson, an experienced teacher who has been expertly applying the art and science of learning when teaching students in their first year of school (Kindergarten/Prep/Reception/Foundation). He discusses the importance of evidence-based practice, the use of Direct Instruction programs, and the challenges and rewards of teaching young children. James shares insights on maintaining sanity in the classroom while balancing work and personal life. We also delve into James' weekly timetable, looking at phonemic awareness, phonics, handwriting, writing and mathematics. He really gets into the nitty-gritty of what his lessons look like day-to-day and how they progress throughout the year.

“Making a conscious and intentional effort to tap into your own personal power and being courageous” is the way today's guest defines “teaching like yourself.” I'm talking with Dr. Gravity Goldberg, whom you might remember from a 2019 interview I did, which ended up being one of the most downloaded Truth for Teachers episodes ever. It's Episode 171, called “Teach like yourself: Why YOU are the person your students need most.” Gravity has over 20 years of teaching experience, including positions as a science teacher, reading specialist, third grade teacher, special educator, literacy coach, staff developer, assistant professor, educational consultant, and yoga teacher. Gravity holds a B.A. and M.Ed. from Boston College and a doctorate from Teachers College. As the founding director of Gravity Goldberg, LLC she leads a team that offers side-by-side coaching and workshops that focus on teachers as decision-makers and student-led instruction. Since our last conversation, Gravity — who has authored 9 books on teaching — has released a new title called Active Learning: 40 Teaching Methods to Engage Students in Every Class and Every Subject, which she co-wrote with the late Barry Gilmore. We touch a bit on that book and what Gravity's working on now, but I thought of this conversation as a “Teach Like Yourself, Revisited”. I wanted to know how her thinking has changed around this topic, and the role authentic teaching plays now. Listen in as we discuss: How “teaching like yourself” (making a conscious and intentional effort to tap into your own personal power and being courageous) is more important now than ever What Gravity has learned about authentic teaching and learning since publishing her book on that topic Has she changed her mind on anything? What would she add? How teachers can integrate engagement strategies in a way that feels authentic and meaningful, rather than just tossing something into their instructional day because they think (or are told) they should The impact of authenticity on students, and specific, practical ways we can make sure students are able to be their true, authentic selves in the classroom Click here to read the transcript and participate in the discussion.
Doug Lemov is the author of the International Bestseller Teach Like a Champion. That title really does speak to Doug and his background in the education system, but also that idea of a champion. “Play like a champion” is a line that Notre Dame Football uses in their locker room (and perhaps you know of the sign they hit before they enter the field), so “teach like a champion” is a nice play on that concept. Doug really does live at the intersection of sport and education, teaching and coaching, and that book, Teach Like a Champion, is now in its 3rd version and has had wild success, especially in the world of education and teaching and coaching. He also has written The Coach's Guide to Teaching and is the co-author of many books. He's a writer, he's someone who likes to be with his computer and create theories, ideas, competencies, and concepts that can serve other people. In addition to his work studying teachers, he also is somebody who is obsessed with coaching in the sports world. He writes his books by studying what high performing teachers do, which then can help us better understand how we learn and how we educate in and outside of the classroom. So, he definitely has his roots in education, but has expanded his range to include the sports world. This is a conversation about sport, about education, and more importantly, about learning (and Doug is an elite thinker when it comes to learning and teaching). Doug had a number of amazing insights during our conversation. Some of them include: “My goal was to find high performing schools in underprivileged communities. And it turns out they're there” (6:50). “Coaching is a form of teaching” (8:05). “I think schools are the most important institutions in society. And when they don't work, it's morally untenable” (9:40). “You can really only think of one thing at a time. If you try to think about too many things at a time, things leave you're working memory; you can't remember them” (13:45). “When you plan a session, don't just plan what you want to have happen. Write out notes on what A+ execution looks like… and what are the mistakes that students are likely to make so that I'm more likely to see them” (16:10). “They don't care what you say until they know that you care” (17:00). “Really the way to show people that you value them and care, especially in an endeavor where people want to get better, is to make them better and to be an effective teacher” (17:35). “Teaching well is one of the primary ways that teachers show that they care” (17:45). “One of the most overlooked moments in coaching is a player gets it right and doesn't know they got it right because no one's watching carefully and no one says that's exactly it, do it again” (20:50). “The most motivating thing is your own success” (21:50). “I'm not saying I don't believe in transformational leadership, but I think it starts with the transaction in most cases” (22:35). “There's a danger in skipping the transaction and going right for the transformation” (22:45). “There's a risk of wanting to be loved as a teacher” (23:10). “One of the biggest challenges of the teaching profession is it's an incredibly lonely, isolating job” (29:45). “If everybody's looking for everything, then nobody is looking for anything” (31:05). “Watching is so underrated as a teaching and coaching skill” (32:05). “Experts and novices learn differently” (33:40). “I think the world of schools has to be a lot more serious about understanding what the cognitive science tells us (and doesn't) and how it shapes learning” (37:25). “It's so easy to underestimate the amount of discipline it takes [to change a habit]” (44:30). “One of the reasons that people don't build off of other people's ideas in meetings is because they don't remember who said what” (53:35). “The purpose of discussion is to change your ideas based on what people in the room said” (54:25). “Social science researchers find that gratitude is one of the most beneficial emotions that you can feel” (59:50). “For me, equity is about helping every young person, or every learner, have the option, have the ability, to be the person that they aspire to be” (1:04:50). “The way to honor people is to invest in them and to teach them well and to hold them to high expectations and to say, ‘That's not your best work'” (1:05:40). “I think people mistake authority for authoritarianism” (1:06:55). “Your job [as parents] is not to make [your kids] happy in every interaction” (1:11:20).

When teachers are trying to problem-solve a situation, we often find a tip or strategy and apply it to all students. I want to encourage you to think it through, think about YOUR class of kiddos. Will it work with every student?Here's my example: Cold calling. According to Doug Lemov of Teach Like a Champion and Paul Bambrick Santoyo of Get Better Faster-Cold calling is an action step designed to engage all students and to discourage students from tuning out Things to consider: Your relationship with each student. Students are easily embarrassed among peers when they can't answer a question. I've seen students as young as five, shrink down in their seats when they can't answer a question. Children read the room from a young age. They know where they fall in the range of high and low students. Those frantically waving their hand, and those sitting quietly trying to understand what was asked. A few too many questions given to re-engage a student who isn't able to answer can slow down relationship building.

Have you ever heard someone say, "Good is good teaching...doesn't matter what the subject is?"I agree!! It's all about the principles of powerful pedagogy...or what I refer to as the chord structure. That's why I have bee able to successfully to the Teach Like a Pirate program to groups of educators who are completely outside of my subject matter expertise and who teach any age of student from pre-k to adult learner. So in this episode I dive into what I mean by the chord structure of powerful teaching.

I got an email from Lauren in Illinois saying that the "Classroom Kung Fu" section of Teach Like a PIRATE was super meaningful for her work right now. This inspired me to go back into my book and take a look...and here it is! I read the whole section then riff on it a bit. Enjoy! Oh...and thanks Lauren! Has something resonated with you from #tlap? Let me know!I would love to hear your thoughts using the #DaveBurgessShow hashtag on social media!Connect with me!Twitter: @burgessdaveInstagram: @dbc_incOHHHH!!! I have a TikTok!!
