Ep.22 - I Took December Off. And I’m Not Sorry.

Teachers on Christmas break hit different. After a week in Hawaii with zero thoughts about school or the podcast, I decided to take the entire month of December off, no guilt attached.

In this episode, I’m talking about why teachers need real breaks, why we feel guilty taking them, and why home girl can take breaks too.

What is Untidy Teacher?

Welcome to Untidy Teacher—your backstage pass to the wild, messy, and meaningful world of elementary school. I’m Mrs. Harrison, a second-grade teacher spilling the real tea from inside the classroom. It’s chaotic, it’s honest, and it might just make you laugh, cry, or want to hug a teacher.
