    Aug 19 2025

    Teaching today isn’t just a job, it’s an emotional marathon with no finish line.

    Teachers are leaving the profession in record numbers — not because they don’t care, but because the pressures, behaviors, and lack of resources are burning them out.

    • How trauma, anxiety, and post-COVID shifts are impacting student behavior

    • Why classroom management training is still missing in many teacher programs

    • The dangers of the “staff room mindset” and how to protect your optimism

    • The immediate changes that could support teachers and improve student outcomes

    Whether you’re a parent, educator, or policymaker, this episode will open your eyes to what’s really going on inside today’s classrooms — and how we can work together to create a healthier learning environment for everyone. Connect with Tem Ezimokhai
