In this episode, we talk about what it’s really going to take for teachers to recover from the frustration, exhaustion, and distress so many feel.

Teachers Aid is new for 2018 with Mandy Froehlich and Jon Harper. We've refocused the show on meeting some of the biggest unmet needs every educator has. If you are an educator who gives teaching your all, but still feels that you're not doing enough, this show is for you. Tune in to get social and emotional support for the very personal challenges teachers face. We promise you that you won't hear educators talking like this every day.
