A proposito di questo titolo

 I’m so glad you’re here, I’m your host Nicola. Term Talk is grounded in the belief that teachers don’t have all the answers and that meaningful professional growth happens through curiosity, collaboration, research-informed practice, and honest reflection. Early in my career, I wished for a mentor to guide me through uncertainty in teaching. What I had instead was curiosity and a deep drive to keep learning, asking better questions, and growing through experience. Through personal experiences, thoughtful conversations, and reflective insights, each episode explores what it really means to: ✨keep learning through mistakes + challenges in education ✨ask better questions + engage more deeply with educational research ✨reflect honestly on teaching practice + professional identity ✨build confidence as an educator without pretending to have it all figured out. This is not a podcast about overnight success or polished teaching solutions. It is about progress, experimentation, and choosing to begin, even when teaching feels uncertain or messy. Term Talk embraces the human side of teaching and creates space for educators to feel supported, empowered, and confident to lead, learn, and thrive in their own authentic way. New episodes drop weekly. Follow along, listen in, and let this podcast become part of your professional learning routine. ✨ Connect with me: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/teacher_life101/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ndibernardo ✨ Join my email list for reflective resources, research-informed insights, and behind-the-scenes updates: TBCCopyright 2026 Nicola Di Economia Ricerca del lavoro Successo personale Sviluppo personale

    Connection Before Content
    Jan 24 2026

    🎙️ Week one sets the tone for the entire school year.

    In this episode of Term Talk, I unpack why connection before content isn’t just a nice idea - it’s a strategic choice that shapes classroom culture, behaviour, and learning from the very start.

    This week I share five intentional week one strategies that help students feel safe, seen, and ready to learn - without losing valuable teaching time.

    These are practical, classroom-tested approaches you can use immediately, whether you’re an early career teacher or a seasoned educator.

    In this episode, we explore:

    1. Why connection isn’t about games - it’s about safety and predictability
    2. How intentional pre-assessment builds trust, not anxiety
    3. Simple ways to model vulnerability and invite student voice
    4. How structured icebreakers support peer connection
    5. A powerful visual strategy to build belonging from day one

    If week one ever feels chaotic or overwhelming this episode will help you slow down, design connection with intention, and set your class up for smarter learning all year long.

    🎙️ Next episode: Routines - not rules (the invisible work that saves you time)
