Have you ever felt like you're constantly putting out fires in your classroom? Redirecting behavior, reteaching concepts, or dealing with burnout without really solving the root problem? Sometimes it feels like we are running around in circles and nothing changes our lives, in our classrooms, in our professional development even though we seem to do our best. Now, why is that?

In this episode, we're going to talk about the “five whys method” and how it can be a powerful tool for you in teaching, creating work life balance, and professional growth.  Show Notes:<ul><li><a href='https://www.simplyieva.com/how-the-5-whys-can-transform-your-teaching-and-life/'>Episode 146 - Digging Deeper: How the 5 Whys Can Transform Your Teaching and Life</a></li></ul>Today’s Episode:<ul><li><a href='https://simplyieva.lpages.co/esl-beginner-curriculum-guide'>EL Newcomer Teaching Compass for grades 6-12</a> - curriculum guide created using backward design PLUS a year-long scope and sequence!</li><li><a href='https://simplyieva.thrivecart.com/esl-teacher-support-coaching-session/'>1:1 EL Teacher Clarity Power-Up Session</a></li><li><a href='https://simplyieva.thrivecart.com/light-the-way-to-el-teaching-success/'>Light The Way to EL Teaching Success On-Demand Digital Masterclass Library</a></li><li><a href='https://amzn.to/4hh6fKD'>The Let Them Theory</a> by Mel Robbins</li></ul>If you find value in The ESL Teaching Podcast and want to support the time, effort, and costs that go into bringing you these episodes each week, consider making a small donation—whatever feels right for you.
