Teachers have been missionaries throughout history! Learn today about Lottie Moon, a missionary who used education in bringing the Gospel to China. Lottie Moon: The Girl Who Reached the World by Amy Whitfield “We've always been open to if the Lord would send us overseas, we would go, but for now He's called us to point people here [...] to the other side of the world.” “I think it's imperative for us to know the stories of the past, particularly those who have gone on before us in the church, to get the context, the history that we have come from.” “It matters to know the story of how the Gospel has spread to places around the world.” “She had one idea, and now missionaries all over the world are supported because of it still.” “Reading missionary biographies or reading missionary journals helps people to see, to understand the need, but then also to see how the Holy Spirit is working in these places.” “It's important in our churches that we are educating our kids about the Bible, about the doctrines of the faith, and about the call to go and make disciples.” “A lot of times, I think people don't understand the role that we all play in the Great Commission, even in sending.” “God woke her up to know Him, and she didn't rest until she told the world His story. Through the simple acts of baking cookies and writing letters and quite a bit of feisty determination, Lottie's dream of reaching the world for Jesus came true.” “I really think it begins with opening your eyes and saying, ‘What's one thing I can do this week, and what's one thing I can do next week?'” “We are called to be the church out there – every day, everywhere we are.” What's changing our lives: Keane: Tzatziki sauce Heather: Single Today by Ryan Wekenman Amy: Matin music from Jess Ray Weekly Spotlight: Opportunities in Creative Access locations We'd love to hear from you! podcast@teachbeyond.org Podcast Website: https://teachbeyond.org/podcast Learn about TeachBeyond: https://teachbeyond.org/

A whistleblower inside the Los Angeles Unified School District has come forward with shocking evidence — stacks of left-wing flyers, posters, and propaganda pulled straight from teachers’ lounges across the district. These weren’t lesson plans or student materials… they were political rally cries — “No Kings,” “Workers Unite,” “Protest!” — the kind of radical messaging you’d expect from activist groups, not classrooms. Grant Stinchfield exposes how these angry liberal educators are using taxpayer-funded schools to push their ideology, not teach America’s kids. This is a deep dive into the political indoctrination hiding behind classroom doors — and why parents must take back control of what’s being taught in our schools.

In classrooms across America, only about 1% of teachers are Black men. That gap shapes how millions of students see themselves and their futures. In this episode, Kevin P. Chavous talks with Ahmoni Jones, a seventh-grade math teacher at Soulsville Charter School in Memphis, who's part of that 1%. Jones grew up in a predominantly Black district, surrounded by teachers who looked like him—but never by a Black man at the front of the room. Now he's changing that story. They talk about what drew him to teaching, the influence of his parents—both behavior specialists—and the moment he realized the classroom was where he could make a difference. Jones explains how he keeps math alive for kids who usually hate it, why humor works better than fear, and how programs like Memphis Teacher Residency are helping young teachers of color stay in the profession. It's a conversation about identity, purpose, and the quiet power of showing up for the next generation.

Why do some schools have high levels of teacher turnover, but others don't? The new book, “When Teachers Stay: Cultivating Resilient Teaching Communities,” explores the question of what makes a resilient teaching community in which teachers want to stay and thrive, uncovering the cohesiveness, continuity, community, and deep sense of belonging for adults and kids.Michelle Hughes will be talking about and signing her new book at the Book House of Stuyvesant Plaza in Albany, New York on Sunday, October 26th at 3PM.

You ever have one of those weeks where your kid says something so wild you can't even respond right away? Yeah… mine started with a confession about sniffing a friend's butt. I also found myself on tour with two grown men who can't remember their rental car company, and then I saw a viral video of a mom furious at her kid's teacher… because he didn't drink his water bottle. This week, I'm unpacking all of it . The parenting chaos, the wild road trip energy, and why sometimes, “Bless your heart” is the only thing keeping me from losing it. Plus, two hilarious teacher voicemails you have to hear, including one about a student trying to learn cursive for a very suspicious reason. Takeaways: The “butt sniffing” confession that proves kindergarteners are just tiny, chaotic humans. Why touring with comedians feels a lot like parenting toddlers. The viral kindergarten water bottle mom — and what it says about modern parenting. A voicemail about a kid learning cursive for forgery (yes, really). An honest look at special education resources and why every teacher needs them. -- Teachers' night out? Yes, please!

(00:01) Teaching Golf Standards and Challenges This chapter features an engaging conversation with Brian Manzella, a renowned golf instructor who is highly ranked in both Golf Magazine's Top 100 Teachers and Golf Digest's Top 50 Teachers lists. We explore the challenges of finding a suitable golf teacher who can adapt to individual learning styles rather than enforcing a one-size-fits-all approach. Brian shares insights into the low standards in the golf teaching industry, contrasting it with other professions that require certifications. He reflects on his career choices and aspirations, and the conversation highlights the importance of having experienced and qualified instructors in golf. Brian's journey and thoughts offer a valuable perspective on the state of golf instruction today. (11:26) Standardizing Golf Instruction This chapter addresses the challenges and opportunities in the world of golf instruction, particularly focusing on biomechanics and communication within the PGA of America. I explore the contrasting methodologies between various biomechanics schools, such as Jacobs 3D and TPI, and question the potential for a unified approach. The conversation also critiques the communication skills in teaching, suggesting that studying successful educators could be more beneficial. I propose two actionable solutions to enhance teaching standards: first, requiring PGA instructors to upload a 30-minute lesson annually, which could foster transparency and inspire improvement; and second, initiating monthly Zoom meetings led by thought leaders, providing a platform for sharing knowledge and techniques. However, I acknowledge potential resistance due to fears of embarrassment and reluctance to showcase one's methods publicly. (19:16) Selecting the Right Golf Instructor This chapter explores how to cultivate emotional attachment to football games when you don't naturally support local teams, such as the Cincinnati Bengals or the Cleveland Browns. By placing bets on platforms like FanDuel, you can create a rooting interest, enhancing your enjoyment and engagement with the games. We also discuss the challenges and politics within the PGA of America regarding innovation and the reluctance to embrace new teaching methodologies due to potential backlash from established professionals. Finally, we address the confusion some might face when seeking golf lessons and how to find the right instructor to improve their game. (28:47) Establishing Standards in Golf Instruction This chapter explores the challenge of identifying great golf teachers and critiques the current system that often relies on reputation and word of mouth. We discuss the flaws in how professional golfers select instructors, noting that the same few teachers are recycled without necessarily being the best. There's a call for a more structured and standardized system to evaluate golf teachers, much like other professions have, to ensure quality instruction. We suggest that someone with a comprehensive understanding of golf instruction, like Brian, could lead an organization to establish fair and effective criteria for rating teachers. The conversation also touches on the need for better communication skills among instructors to improve how they convey their knowledge to students. (38:29) The Golf Instruction Industry Issues This chapter explores the cyclical nature of golf teaching trends and the resurgence of topics like the golfing machine and O'Grady's methodologies on social media platforms. We reflect on how these discussions have been extensively debated in forums and Facebook groups over the years, and yet continue to re-emerge with new generations. The idea of creating an archival system to document these recurring trends is discussed, emphasizing the need for a structured approach to preserving golf teaching history. Additionally, we analyze the influence of tour instructors and the fluctuation of their perceived credibility, noting that many gain prominence without having developed players from the ground up. The conversation also touches on the lack of dedicated media coverage for the golf teaching industry, suggesting that more consistent scrutiny could address ongoing issues and misconceptions. (50:08) The Future of Golf Instruction This chapter focuses on the future of the golf teaching business and how it can be improved. We explore the potential for customization in golf instruction, emphasizing the importance of tailoring lessons to individual players' needs. The conversation highlights the potential for increased visibility of personalized coaching through online platforms, allowing coaches to showcase their work with specific players. While AI is acknowledged as a transformative force, the discussion shifts to the shortcomings of golf telecasts, particularly the lackluster performance of current announcers. We discuss the idea of offering alternative commentary options, allowing viewers to choose more engaging and knowledgeable voices to enhance the viewing experience. The overall sentiment is that both golf instruction and telecasts have room for improvement, and there is hope for more personalized and entertaining approaches in the future. (54:42) Celebrating Golf Music Memories This chapter is all about having a good time with a nod to musical nostalgia and a touch of humor. We explore the joys of appreciating pickles and the fun of picking who you love, alongside a light-hearted mention of Dan Hicks and the Hot Licks, specifically their classic song "How Can I Miss You When You Won't Go Away." It's a mix of laughter and fond memories as we share this entertaining moment. Ryan and I have a great exchange, highlighting the fun and camaraderie of the group, while also playfully acknowledging the presence of cynicism. It's a heartfelt thanks to Ryan for joining us, as we wrap up another engaging session on Those Weekend Golf Guys. #GolfInstruction, #BrianManzella, #TeachingStandards, #PGAofAmerica, #Biomechanics, #Communication, #AdaptiveTeaching, #IndividualLearningStyles, #Certification, #InstructionalStandards, #AI, #PersonalizedCoaching, #GolfTelecasts, #MusicalNostalgia, #Camaraderie, #GolfCommunity, #GolfIndustry, #TeachingTrends, #GolfTeachers, #GolfMediaCoverage Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Send us a textA new crew of superheroes, the Lake Erie League, is turning everyday systems into comic-book stories for kids and teachers to use in the classroom. Across eight origin tales, these northeast Ohio-inspired characters mirror very real aspects of the Sewer District's work, from massive tunneling machines whose creations tame storm overflows, to a miniaturized lab technician who can detect toxins no human eye could witness.We start with Mackenzie, inspired by the tunnel boring machine behind Project Clean Lake, who illustrates how infrastructure projects matter underground and on the surface. Spectra brings lab science to life with tests that our students can replicate in class, while Rover and Dr. Tao tackle sewer and stream inspections and the microscopic world of water quality. Botanica's story is rooted stream protection, restoration, and sustainability, and Vis and Overwatch round out the Lake Erie League with CSI-style adventures as seen from the field -- and above it.Teachers can request print copies of the new comic book for their classrooms and access the stories and activity sheets at neorsd.org/league.Meet the Lake Erie League creators:Joe Sieracki, writerMiguel Hernandez, illustrator

After years of refusing to have the state pay its fair share of the cost of running Ohio's public schools and forcing local property tax payers to carry a bigger load to make up the difference, Ohio lawmakers are pushing a number of property tax changes that could slash revenues for school districts with devastating impacts on Ohio's public school students. So, what can the state actually do to provide meaningful property tax relief without doing so on the backs of our public schools? In Part 2 of this special two-part conversation, we take a look at the potential property tax reforms Ohio lawmakers could enact if they were really interested in something beyond short-sighted Band aid fixes.LISTEN TO PART 1 | Click here to hear the first half of the conversation with Dr. Howard Fleeter, where we dive into the history and impact of Ohio's property tax laws and the state policy changes that have fueled the rise in local property tax bills in recent years.

If you have not listened to Part 1, please go back and listen to it now.TAKE ACTION | House Bill 186 is one of several property tax bills making its way through the General Assembly right now.

For years, the Ohio legislature has pushed to have the state pay a smaller and smaller share of the cost of running Ohio's public schools, placing a bigger and bigger burden on local property taxpayers to make up the difference. Now, Ohio lawmakers are pushing a whole raft of property tax reform bills, many with potentially disastrous consequences for public school students across the state. So, what can the state actually do to provide meaningful property tax relief without doing so on the backs of the public schools that serve 90 percent of students in our state? To understand where we should go from here, we have to understand how we got to this pressure point. In Part 1 of this special two-part conversation, we take a deeper dive into how Ohio's property taxes work and what's driving a spike in property tax bills in recent years.LISTEN TO PART 2 |Click here to hear the second half of the conversation with Dr. Howard Fleeter, where we look at what the state could do to enact potential property tax policy changes without devastating Ohio's public schools.TAKE ACTION | House Bill 186 is one of several property tax bills making its way through the General Assembly right now. But, the substitute version of HB 186 under consideration would result in a huge, devastating funding cut for hundreds of Ohio school districts, especially in rural communities.

Hi everyone! Today we're exploring the connection between ADHD and bullying. Research consistently shows that children with ADHD are more vulnerable to bullying than their neurotypical peers. For instance, a study utilizing data from the National Survey of Children's Health found that 47% of children with ADHD reported being victims of bullying, more than double the prevalence in the general population PMC.This increased susceptibility isn't just a childhood issue—it extends into adolescence and adulthood, affecting self-esteem and mental health. Adolescents with ADHD who experience bullying are at a significantly higher risk for anxiety and depression compared to their peers without ADHD. My guest today, Brooke Schnittman, knows this firsthand. Brooke is an ADHD coach, speaker, and host of the podcast, Successful with ADHD. She works to help adults turn their challenges into strengths. In our conversation, she shares her own story of being bullied from childhood into adulthood, how it shaped her understanding of ADHD, and what helped her begin to rebuild a sense of self-worth.This episode isn't just about surviving bullying - it's about understanding how those experiences shape the brain and the stories we tell ourselves, and how healing becomes possible through awareness, coaching, and connection. I also share some additional strategies - both for parents and adults - that can help build proactive protection and resilience in environments where bullying or exclusion might occur. I hope you enjoy!Here are the show notes: Learn More About Brookehttps://www.coachingwithbrooke.com/about-brookeSuccessfull with ADHD Podcasthttps://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/successfull-with-adhd/id1674069554Bullying: What Parents and Teachers of Children with ADHD Need to Knowhttps://chadd.org/wp-content/uploads/2018/06/ATTN_06_12_Bullying.pdfBullying Resource Centerhttps://www.aacap.org/aacap/Families_and_Youth/Resource_Centers/Bullying_Resource_Center/Home.aspxHow to Demobilize a Bully in 5 Stepshttps://www.additudemag.com/stop-bullying-adhd-upstander/?srsltid=AfmBOoozI6FRhewOLn8ICHuypgxNjYuz4icT8UfTDNIPcYINmIxqmwt3Put Down the Stick, Pick Up a Feather: Adult ADHD & Self-Criticismhttps://chadd.org/attention-article/put-down-the-stick-pick-up-a-feather-adult-adhd-self-criticism/Learn More About Our MAP Programhttps://map.worksmartcoaching.comLearn More About 1:1 Coachinghttps://www.beyondbooksmart.com/how-it-worksGet in Touchpodcast@beyondbooksmart.comInstagram/Facebook/Tiktok: @beyondbooksmartcoachingwww.beyondbooksmart.com

Episode SummaryIn this special episode of Gratitude Through Hard Times, host Chris Schembra welcomes Drew Sullivan, a purpose-driven dealmaker, speaker advocate, and Senior Vice President at APB Speakers, for a raw and hope-filled conversation about the courage it takes to stop hiding and start living authentically.Drew's story is both ordinary and extraordinary. Growing up as a middle child with ADHD in a sports-obsessed town, he was labeled as “wrong” more often than he was encouraged to be curious. Teachers told him to be quiet, behavioral charts measured his worth, and well-intentioned parents and doctors tried their best but often focused on what he did rather than why he felt what he felt. Those early messages led to decades of self-doubt, addiction, and feeling “othered.”But Drew's life didn't end there. Sobriety became his turning point, not just quitting substances but rebuilding identity from the inside out. He realized the same curiosity and big-heartedness he was punished for as a child had become his superpowers as an adult: the ability to connect deeply, ask better questions, and champion others' voices.Chris and Drew unpack big ideas that apply to everyone, whether you're a parent trying to raise emotionally healthy kids, a leader navigating change with your team, or someone working on your own healing. Together, they talk about how to move beyond trauma without ignoring it, how to strengthen relationships through curiosity and vulnerability, and how connection isn't just nice to have, it's essential for growth.They dive into practical tools and powerful frameworks:The Military-Style Debrief — After any event or risk, ask three questions: What went well? What could have gone better? What will we do differently next time? From What to Why — Lasting growth comes not from obsessing over what happened but from exploring why it happened and using that insight to break harmful cycles. Ubuntu Philosophy — “I am because we are.” Success is never a solo act. Long-term fulfillment comes from shared humanity and supporting each other's growth. Inside-Out Living — Stop chasing outside validation (titles, applause, perfection) and build a life anchored in authenticity and personal truth.This episode also wrestles with one of today's cultural tensions: the “cult of trauma.” We live in a time where looking backward has become a primary mode of healing, therapy, revisiting wounds, and retelling past pain. That work is necessary but incomplete. Chris and Drew challenge listeners to balance reflection with forward momentum, to ask not just what went wrong, but how do we build what's next?Their conversation is deeply practical yet profoundly human. Drew shares intimate stories — from being excluded at eighth-grade basketball tryouts to the loneliness of early sobriety — and turns them into wisdom for anyone trying to live and lead differently. Chris opens up about his own childhood with ADHD and how empathy and gratitude saved his life and career. Together, they model what it looks like to have brave, healing, and hope-filled dialogue.At its heart, this episode is a call to action: to show up for yourself and others with dignity, curiosity, and presence; to give gratitude in a way that lands; to stop letting shame and isolation write your story; and to embrace connection as the bridge between pain and growth.Whether you're a parent, an educator, a leader building culture, or someone just trying to live a more wholehearted life, you'll leave with practical tools and renewed belief that storms don't last forever, and that you're not alone in the work of becoming.10 Great Quotes“Not all gratitude given is gratitude received. We have to give in the language others like to receive.” — Drew Sullivan “Solutions are not found in the what; they're found in the why.” — Drew Sullivan “Every storm has to end at some point — the clouds have to clear.” — Drew Sullivan “Don't play hide and seek with yourself. Stop letting your thoughts hide.” — Drew Sullivan “If you want to go fast, go alone. If you want to go far, go together.” — Chris Schembra quoting Ubuntu “Without connection, there is no growth. It's the water and fertilizer for real progress.” — Drew Sullivan “We spend so much emotional energy reliving what went wrong that we forget to dream about what can go right.” — Chris Schembra “Vulnerability 101: be honest about the truth of your life, not just where you are now but where you came from.” — Drew Sullivan “The greatest present you can give is your presence.” — Chris Schembra “When you know better, you do better — but only if you act on what you've learned.” — Drew Sullivan 10 Key TakeawaysEmpathy must lead to action — Listening and understanding are powerful, but transformation only happens when you do something with what you've learned. Reframe challenges into opportunities — Shift from “what went wrong” to “what can we do differently next time.” Ask “why,” not just “what” — Understanding the why behind behaviors, decisions, and pain creates the foundation for healing and growth. Connection is non-negotiable — Personal and professional growth withers without deep human relationships. Redefine vulnerability — Sharing your real story — even messy parts — builds trust and invites connection. Inside-out living beats outside-in validation — Chase alignment with values and purpose, not just achievements or appearances. Parents and leaders shape futures — Taking one extra step to understand and affirm can change someone's entire trajectory. Reinvention is always possible — Like the Real Housewives metaphor, we all deserve new eras and second chances. Don't let your past pilot your future — Carry your “stone,” but build the strength to make it a co-pilot, not the driver. Gratitude is a bridge — When expressed thoughtfully in someone's love language, it deepens relationships and accelerates healing.

Education is changing—and fast. In this episode of American Potential, host David From sits down with Kerry McDonald, author of the new book Joyful Learning: How to Find Freedom, Happiness, and Success Beyond Conventional Schooling. Kerry shares how homeschooling, micro schools, and learning collaboratives are creating a new era of education freedom—where parents and teachers design learning environments that fit every child's unique needs. From former public school teachers launching innovative micro schools to families discovering flexible, affordable, and even tuition-free learning options through school choice policies, Kerry highlights the growing movement toward personalized, empowering education. Whether you're a parent, educator, or policymaker, this conversation offers a hopeful look at how joyful, student-centered learning is reshaping what it means to go to school in America.

This week I found myself wandering through a 90s fever dream, yes, there was an actual Tamagotchi pop-up shop, before heading to Chicago for a sold-out show that brought out old students, old stories, and one deeply unimpressed middle schooler. Then, things got even more chaotic when teacher voicemails rolled in: one about 8th graders who can't stop saying “six-seven” (and now in Spanish), and another about a slime experiment gone very, very wrong. Let's just say it involved a phrase no one should ever hear in a science class. Add in a life-saving resource for struggling students and a hill I'm ready to die on why student teachers need to be paid and you've got an episode that's equal parts nostalgia, cringe, and fire. Takeaways: Andrea's surreal discovery of a Tamagotchi pop-up shop in a fully packed 90s-style mall before her Chicago show. A run-in with a 12-year-old fan's son who made it painfully clear parents can't be cool no matter what. A teacher voicemail about students obsessed with the “six-seven” trend and now, thanks to a clever colleague, saying it in Spanish. Another voicemail featuring an 8th grader who made a slime experiment unforgettable for all the wrong reasons. Andrea's passionate plea for change: why student teachers deserve to be paid for their full-time classroom work. -- Teachers' night out? Yes, please!
