About the show

What happens when two veteran teachers, former administrators, and sports moms finally hit "record"? You get the unpolished truth about life in the classroom. Because let’s be honest: no one survives the school day alone. I’m Michelle, and I’m Nicole.  Whether you’re looking for a fresh perspective on pedagogy, a safe place to vent, or just a friendly voice to remind you that you’re doing a great job in the trenches, you’ve found your people. Welcome to the Neighborhood. The door is always open.  Join our online community: Instagram @teachersnextdoorpodcast www.teachersnextdoorpodcast.com.
