In this episode, we get to know a Physical Education teacher, podcast host, and former ball boy for the Oklahoma City Thunder - Matt Shellenberger. He graduated from Southern Nazarene University with a degree in Sports Information and working towards an M.Ed in Educational Leadership at his alma mater. I've taught and coached with Matt the last three years at my current school. Matt is a relationship builder with not only his students, but his coworkers. He has the positive demeanor and attitude most parents desire as a role model for their child. We learn about his background as a Sports Information major to what changed his path away from that career. He discusses some failures in the classroom and as a coach.
The ongoing theme from past episodes is 'building relationships with students' being THE factor to becoming an effective teacher. Matt gives some tips on how he builds those relationships and some simple rituals he has throughout the days. SHOW NOTES Intro: Fun Fact
