Joyful in Primary Podcast

Have you ever followed someone’s platform only to find out that knowing them personally changed your opinion of them? Once you knew them in real life, you saw them to be “fake” or just not who they portrayed themselves to be? Well, I know Teacher Toni in real life. (She’s the teacher across the hall from me.) And let me just tell you…she’s even BETTER in person! That bubbly, positive, kind person you hear in your earbuds? That’s legit. I’m honored to call her my best friend! I, too, am trying to learn from her!! If I had to pick just ONE thing that she excels at in her classroom, it would be relationships. So when she gives advice about that, take notes!

I just came across this podcast the other day and I am loving it! The hallway behavior ideas are perfect and I can’t wait to try them! Thank you for making my time in the car be one of growth! Listening feels like sitting and chatting with a friend over coffee.

Sometimes things, and people, come into your life at just the right time! This podcast and Teacher Toni is just that! Listening to these episodes bring me peace and so much joy. The tips she shares have already helped me tremendously in teaching and in my personal life. I look forward to Thursday’s every week now because I know there will be a new episode. I am especially grateful in how she has helped me realize the importance of a routine in the classroom and how she has reminded of my “why.” ALSO, her resources in her Teachers Pay Teachers store are WONDERFUL! I use so many of them daily, and they have made a tremendous difference! (The Daily-Write-It is phenomenal!) I am amazed by Toni’s passion and love for others. As I listen to her podcasts, I often feel as if she is a part of my family. Thanks for the hard work you put into the episodes, Toni! You have impacted me in such a positive way!

Hello and thank you, Teacher Toni! I am a Mom of a new Kindergartener and Second Grader. I am also their homeschool teacher. Your podcast is incredible. Well it’s you, really. I cannot thank you enough for your ongoing positive approach and support. It truly speaks to me as a human and as their teacher. I am not a teacher because I graduated with a teaching degree. We decided to homeschool our littles until they can be vaccinated. So, I need all the help I can get! You have helped me in so many ways - planning, class management, time management, self regulation, lessons, mindset, approach- in my life, inside and outside of the classroom. Even our kids enjoy hearing the happiness you send out via your podcast. Thanks again and cheers to a joyous, healthy and safe year. - L.C. in California
