Substitute teachers juggle many demands. Prioritize wellness with tech breaks, healthy snacks, and mini-meditations. Self-care boosts focus, energy, and resilience on the job

Bridging theory and practice can be tough, but as a sub teacher, I've found hands-on learning and real-world examples keep students engaged. Practical approach FTW!

This evening, I find myself craving the delectable flavors of sushi, accompanied by the soothing ambiance of a cozy film. The ideal cinematic pairing to complement my indulgence would be a thoughtful drama that explores the complexities of the human experience

Just finished watching "Dead Poets Society" with my students - such a powerful film about the impact of education on young minds! Excited to be attending a local rally for social justice this weekend - standing up for equality in our community! Dreaming of landing a permanent teaching position so I can continue making a difference in the lives of students every day. Sushi night is the best night - what's your favorite sushi roll? Watching "Hidden Figures" with my class this week to celebrate the incredible achievements of women in STEM fields
