Alicia shares how she’s used The Classroom Management Club to reframe the way she sees herself as an educator and the ways she’s used its resources in unexpected ways.

Classroom Management Advice from 3rd-Year Teacher Rebecca Stafford
We’ve been talking on the podcast lately about preparing for the new school year, especially as beginning teachers, and ways to feel ready when the school year begins. And one of the best ways to prepare is through the R.E.A.D.Y. for School Academy.
After her years in the classroom and being a part of the Academy, Rebecca Stafford shares what she’s learned about classroom management, what she’d do differently, her growth as a teacher, and the advice she’d give beginning teachers.

Customer Reviews
Such a life saver!
Dr. Lori is the mentor you wish you had in your credential program. I don’t know how I managed to find these resources but I am so grateful I did. I love how open and passionate she is about helping out new teachers and just educators in general. In this profession it is a breath of fresh air to have someone willing to share their insights and experiences so we can all work together and support one another! This mentality is what we hope to instill in our students and I have benefited so much from listening to these informative episodes.
A breath of fresh air
I have worked in the education field for several years but am finding the information from this podcast so helpful. The episodes are the perfect length and Dr. Lori has amazing tips and such a passion for teaching that it is contagious to her listeners. I am so happy that I stumbled upon this gem!
First Year Teacher
This podcast is nothing short of amazing! I am a first year teacher this year and I very much felt like I was a fish out of water gasping for air before I found Lori. This podcast really helps calm those unsettled nerves and gives you a solid foundation to build on.
