Are you telling instead of teaching? In this episode, I dive into the #1 mistake I see teachers making in their lessons — defaulting to telling students information instead of truly guiding their learning. I’ll share four practical strategies you can use right away to shift from telling to teaching, from asking curious questions to recording and reviewing your own lessons. If you’ve ever caught yourself talking at your students instead of engaging with them, this one’s for you.
