  • Bringing real-world connections into lessons in ways that engage students—without extra prep.
  • Flexible seating & classroom design myths and practical, budget-friendly ways to improve your classroom setup.

Her biggest message? Teaching doesn’t have to be exhausting. Small shifts can lead to big changes.
