Meet your host
Hi, I'm Drea
high school teacher, recovering control freak
I've spent ten years in high school classrooms, and I started Deeply Human Teaching because I wanted teaching to feel more human, for the students and for us.
On the podcast, I talk through the things I wish someone had told me earlier: how to run a calmer classroom, how to use new tools without losing your soul, and how to take care of yourself while you take care of everyone else.
