Welcome to “Those Who Can’t Do" with host Andrea Forcum (aka Educator Andrea on TikTok), a former high school teacher and now professor at Indiana State University. Each week, hang out in our podcast faculty lounge as Andrea trades notes with teachers, professors, students, politicians, and maybe even some celebrities as we explore what makes a great educator. Along the way, we’ll spotlight heroes, trade resources, share hilarious classroom war stories, and, most importantly, encourage one another as we shape the leaders, innovators, and future of our world. Teaching may be hard, but it’s as rewarding as it is challenging. The one thing it’s not… is driven by those who can’t do!

Passing Out In The Classroom with Gabe Dannenbring
This week I spoke with Gabe Dannenbring, about how he comes from a family of teachers and got into teaching to bring something to society, the time he tore his pants at school, when a meth head broke into their school, and shared his opinions on what the US can do to recruit more teachers.

Pee Your Pants Funny
Andrea is hilarious. She’s smart and knows her stuff, but can also be a hot mess like the rest of us at times. She’s literally just keeping it real. If you are deep in the teacher trenches, or just starting out, you need to follow this podcast. As a 25 year veteran, I moved from 20 yrs in Kindergarten/Grade One to teaching Social Studies and Art for Gr 9-12 in a High School. Andrea’s video comparisons of elementary-middle-high school teachers in the wild are spot on and never cease to have me scream ‘yes, that’s totally how it is!’ She gets the hard days, the parents who drive us bananas, the kids who suffer through the unimaginable and lean on us for support, the supportive colleagues and the not so great ones, the keeners and the wieners.’ She has lived it and come through the other side mostly unscathed. Lol. And now she’s passing on her wisdom to the next generation with her own brand of humour, because let’s face it, if we can’t laugh in this profession at some of the most asinine things we see on the daily, we’d likely break.
This should be a must-listen for any future teachers who want to know what they are in for (including all the warm fuzzies because we do love the kids, even the ding dongs), and for us veterans who just need that dose of affirmation.
Awesome Andrea
Andrea blows me away with everything she posts. She’s taken on so many different tasks and still does everything amazingly. I can’t wait to hear all these new episodes you’ve got up your sleeve.
