Jess’s Farewell To The Hot Mess Teacher Express

Saison 5 · Épisode 19

vendredi 19 janvier 2024 • Durée 14:48

Last call aboard the Hot Mess Teacher Express with Jess Smith

Welcome aboard for one final, heartfelt journey on the Hot Mess Teacher Express podcast. I'm your host, Jess Smith, and in this emotional rollercoaster of an episode, I'm getting real about the power of letting go and the journey that led me to temporarily say farewell to this incredible podcast.

I'll share my personal experiences with the tough realization that clinging to what no longer serves us can be a barrier to our true potential.

But it's not just about shedding physical baggage or stepping away from draining relationships.

I will take you through my own voyage with the Hot Mess Teacher Express. From the early days at Bored Teachers to where we are now, it's been a rollercoaster of emotions, learning, and laughter. I'll reflect on how this podcast has shaped me, brought joy, and also challenges that have pushed me to grow.

My decision to step away from the Hot Mess Teacher Express. It's a candid, raw, and honest discussion about authenticity, staying true to oneself, and the courage it takes to leave something behind, even when it's hard.

Fear not, the journey doesn’t end here. I'll share the exciting new paths I’m venturing down. The future is bright, filled with possibilities, and I am buzzing with anticipation for what's next.

And finally, I leave you with a message that's close to my heart. It's about embracing change, welcoming new opportunities, and understanding that sometimes, saying goodbye is the bravest thing you can do to make way for growth and new beginnings.

So join me, Jess Smith, for one last rise aboard the Hot Mess Teacher Express. It's not just a goodbye; it's a celebration of new adventures and a reminder that the best is yet to come.

Andrea kicks things off with a hilarious recount of attending the Bored Teacher Comedy Tour. A night of laughs, teacher jokes, and getting recognized for the first time! She shares how this experience shaped her approach to comedy, inspired by the likes of Andrea Caspari, and how she artfully treads the fine line of pushing the envelope as a comedian.

Debunking teaching myths, with latte in hand 🍎🤣

Saison 3 · Épisode 8

lundi 6 novembre 2023 • Durée 18:29

Climb aboard the Hot Mess Teacher Express, let me be your myth-busting maestro!

👀 Ever heard that half-days are a breeze or that certain weather guarantees a day of chaos? Lies. Sarcasm in the classroom: teaching tool or taboo? Spoiler alert: It's all about the delivery!

🖨️ Plus, we're taking on the legend of the copier curse - is there really a gremlin inside waiting for the worst possible moment to strike? I have a few thoughts (and maybe a couple of battle scars) to share on that front.

And for those who think every minute must be measured and monitored, let me make a case for the power of reading for pleasure and the unexpected success of spontaneous lesson plans. Because sometimes, the best-laid plans are the ones you don't make.

Whether you're a teaching veteran or still finding your way, this episode is your antidote to the age-old myths that have been following teachers around for far too long.

It's time to debunk, laugh, and maybe even learn a thing or two.

The Surprises New Teachers Never See Coming

Saison 4 · Épisode 6

dimanche 3 septembre 2023 • Durée 19:18

We are breaking the seal on the teacher's starter pack of surprises. First stop? The Germ Station. No one gave us the heads up on how we'd be playing tag with viruses during our first year. (Who knew teaching came with a free immune system upgrade?). Summer breaks? Think of it as a "blink-and-you-miss-it" montage rather than the sun-soaked vacation everyone imagines.

And can we talk about the countless moments when students share their unfiltered thoughts? It’s like a mini stand-up comedy show, but you’re trying not to laugh (or sometimes, cry). The days? Marathon-long. The nights? A fleeting dream. And let's not even get started on the amount of actual teaching we do versus… everything else.

Ah, the notorious copy machine – the moody piece of machinery destined to jam only when you're in a rush. Trust me, it's more sinister than any school ghost story. And those hats we wear? Let's just say, that between being a teacher, counselor, event planner, mediator, and undercover superhero, we might as well start a hat shop!

But, as we chug along to the final station, let’s not forget the paradox of teaching: it's an energy-draining, all-consuming whirlwind that somehow fills our hearts to the brim. No one really tells you that, do they?

Teacher Types - How Different Educators Teach

Saison 4 · Épisode 2

lundi 7 août 2023 • Durée 20:37

Welcome aboard the Hot Mess Teacher Express, today we're spinning the wheel of teacher types, and will be learning how different educators teach. Your beloved host, Jess Smith, will help you navigate the educational jungle, one eccentric teacher at a time.

We start with the grizzled veterans of the education world. Those seasoned pros who've weathered enough school years to have their prep routine down to a science. Their tales of survival and triumph will leave you in awe, and possibly feeling a little terrified.

Then there's the first-year teachers, who are as easy to spot on their first day as a flamingo in a flock of pigeons. Adorable, aren't they? You won't believe the stories we've collected about these 'rookies' on their inaugural educational voyage.

Next up, meet the 'worst-case scenario' teachers. You know the ones - they've thought of every possible catastrophe, from alien invasions to zombie apocalypses, that could hit their classroom. Bless their over-prepared hearts!

Can't forget about the teachers who are still in denial that the school year is about to start. Spot them on the beach, clinging to their surfboards while they should be setting up their classrooms. We all know a few, don't we?

And last, but certainly not least, meet the 'good enough' teacher. They've mastered the balancing act, the art of doing just enough to get by, and honestly, they're thriving!

So grab a cup of coffee (or something stronger, we won't tell), and join us for a laugh-out-loud deep-dive into the wonderfully diverse world of educators. Trust us, you're in for a treat!

What Is The Deal With Professional Development?

Saison 4 · Épisode 1

lundi 31 juillet 2023 • Durée 30:28

Get ready to climb back aboard the "Hot Mess Teacher Express!" piloted by our fearless conductor Jess Smith! In today's episode, we're tackling the often bumpy, always interesting ride that is Professional Development.

Our first stop: incentives. We dive into the big question. Are there any real perks for teachers to sit through these never-ending sessions of jargon and slide shows? Is there a light at the end of this tunnel or should we brace ourselves for another incoming train? (Here's hoping for the former!)

We've compiled a potpourri of stories, anecdotes, and experiences from our comrades in arms – those teachers who've dared to dabble in the enigmatic world of professional development.

Naturally, we couldn't hold back our own perspective. Let's just say that when professional development starts to feel like a patronizing seminar, we wonder if they're confusing 'develop' with 'deride.'

Sure, the current state of professional development could use some... well, development. But guess what? Jess has a plan. A thought. A spark of optimism that she can't wait to share it with you.

Get ready for an episode that promises more twists and turns than the most puzzling professional development flowchart. Believe us, you don't want to miss this one!
