Sisterly Insights Into The Classroom

Sibling stories in education! Hop on board the Hot Mess Teacher Express, where every journey into the world of education is a wild ride! I'm your conductor Jess Smith, and today, I've got a very special guest joining me – my sister, Niki Fisher. Trust me, this episode is not just a family reunion; it's an eye-opening exploration of the education system from a unique perspective. Niki, a paraprofessional and an unexpected entrant into the world of teaching, brings a fresh, honest, and sometimes hilarious view of life in the school trenches. Homeschooled until her junior year, Niki's leap into public education is a story of adaptation, resilience, and a bit of sibling rivalry. Join us as Niki shares the nitty-gritty of her day-to-day life supporting students one-on-one, from managing behaviors to the joyous breakthrough moments. It's a peek behind the classroom curtain that you rarely get to see, filled with anecdotes that'll have you both laughing and nodding in sympathy. But it's not all smiles and storytime. Niki opens up about the challenges she faces, from navigating student behaviors to dealing with the emotional toll that comes with the job. And let's not forget the school hierarchy – it's like a soap opera, but with more bulletin boards. And of course, what's an episode without a bit of sisterly banter? We'll share our journey from childhood homeschooling to working in education, the highs, the lows, and the unforgettable moments. So, whether you're a teacher, an educator in the making, or just someone who loves a good behind-the-scenes look at the world of education, this episode of Hot Mess Teacher Express is for you. Tune in for laughs, learning, and a little bit of sisterly love. It's an educational adventure like no other!Support the show: https://www.patreon.com/hotmessteacherexpressSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
