Welcome to 'The Unteachables Podcast'! I’m your host Claire English, a passionate secondary teacher and leader turned teacher mentor and author of the book 'It's Never Just About the Behaviour: A holistic approach to classroom behaviour management'. I am here because I am on a mission to transform classroom management and teacher support.
Why I do this? It doesn’t feel that long ago that I was completely overwhelmed and out of my depth with behaviour, trying to swim, rather than sink. It took me spending thousands of hours in the classroom, with all of the inevitable ups and downs, to make me the teacher I am today; confident, capable, and empowered in my ability to teach all students, yes even the ones who are the toughest to reach. And now, I am dedicated to supporting teachers like you to do the same.
I created The Unteachables Podcast to give you the simple and actionable classroom management strategies and support that you need to run your room with confidence, compassion, and calm.On the Podcast you will hear from incredible guests such as:-Bobby Morgan of the Liberation Lab-Marie Gentles, the behaviour expert behind the BBC documentaries 'Don't Exclude Me' and 'Helping Our Teens', and author of the book Gentles Guidance: How to Understand, Inspire and Empower your kids.-Robyn Gobbel, author of Raising Kids with Big Baffling Behaviours-Dr Lori Desautels, assistant professor and published author-Ceri Sandford of Wine with Teacher Podcast / Embrace your ADHD Chaos -Danica of Little Bloom Think of them as your behaviour besties (and there are many more to come!).
So whether you’re in early years, primary or secondary. A beginning teacher, an early career teacher, a teacher in training, a teaching assistant, an experienced teacher, a leader in teaching, and you’re wanting to feel happy and empowered and enjoy being in the classroom, whilst also making an impact with every single one of your students, then you’re definitely in the right place.

Klantrecensies
Informative, comforting and a breath of fresh air
I love listening to this educational podcast for teachers. She is a breath of fresh air when it comes to classroom management: easy to apply techniques, based on her experience as a teacher and all the research there is about it. I learnt plenty, especially about the non-verbal communication you can apply as a teacher. After eleven years of practice myself, I can safely say this podcast never fails to motivate, inspire and offer new perspectives. Highly recommend! The sound quality of the podcast is also good.
