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: TBC
