Globally Subscribed Education Podcast, Teach Me, Teacher, is One of Our Very Own

Teach Me, Teacher is the brainchild of Jacob Chastain, a sixth-grade English teacher at Richland Middle School. Teach Me, Teacher is a podcast for educators where teachers discuss topical, informative, and inspiring subjects. Designed from the ground up as a no nonsense approach to teacher development, this podcast is your gateway to bettering your craft (and having some laughs along the way). The show's goal is to help teachers better their craft, learn new skills, and get ideas to fuel new ideas. While the show is hosted by Richland Middle School in Birdville ISD in Texas, it is a show for anyone in the field of education, and features teachers and administrators from all over to offer their unique perspectives. "The podcast is fueled by the idea that teachers learn best from other teachers “IN” the classroom. Yes, there are a lot of great advisors out there that have ideas and methods for us to try, and an endless amount of professional development seminars we can attend (which we should.) But I believe professional development isn’t just something we sign up for and attend. It is a life commitment to bettering ourselves for our students.", Chastain continued, "Every district, school, and class is different. The students of today are not the students we were. They have changed, and they will keep changing. In order to adapt to these circumstances, it is imperative that we, as teachers, stay students ourselves, and learn from each other every single day. Teachers and educators of today don’t have time to waste on old advice or outdated practices. You need the good stuff now."
