About this listen

In this week’s episode, we dive into the wild world of student motivation—what drives some students to thrive while others seem checked out. Education isn’t what it used to be, and we explore how that shift affects engagement today. We also share a jaw-dropping story about an overly involved (and very persuasive) parent trying to charm a teacher into changing a grade. Plus, what happens when one class starts to take over an entire school? And yes, we go there: from a student with stalker vibes to a surprising twist involving babysitting and college acceptance. It’s all about adapting, flying by the seat of your pants, and doing whatever it takes to get students motivated.
