Even if you think you're not productive, you're such a kick in the butt to actually start moving and work to me. Thanks for being my constant inspiration! :))
Hello, I love watching a little glimpse of your life. You gave a me flash back as to when hubby & I (19 yrs ago) would make a little list for everything. Your my weekly Novela. Thank you for all ur tips especially about being kind to other people. I live by this rule everyday, always try to make some smile, even if you do not know them...... a smile can go a long way.
I just appreciate so much how authentic you are in your videos. It's so refreshing and inspires me to be more authentic in everything I do. High five, Michelle. You rock.
It seems Billy is getting used to being in front of the camera now! I love how you watch Jeopardy together and play board games! Too sweet! I start back to school Wednesday. Enjoy the rest of your summer!
I'm a new subscriber and, let me tell you, you have changed my teaching life! I am 4 years away from retirement and was in desperate need of an injection of positivity and then I stumbled upon your channel and, well...the rest is wonderful! I'm so excited for this school year to begin and today, I'm putting together my very first teacher toolbox! I feel like a brand new teacher and it feels good! Thanks Michelle!
I'm so ready to go back to school starting my junior year as an elementary ed major and I'm so ready to be done! Michelle is such an inspiration! Anyone else agree?!
From a soon-to-be student teacher, I really appreciate your honesty and advice when you talk about teaching. I will be in high school, but I find your ideas and videos extremely helpful!
Awwww!!! Michelle... I loved today's vlog... well... I love all of your vlogs! I'm so happy that I could make make your day! That's is just so sweet!! But trust me.. you've truly inspired me to be more organized and productive with my days! Honestly... I have very little balance in my life and I work 14 hours a day... everyday!! And I love that you balance everything out...between working on your business, exercising, cooking, and spending quality time with Billy! Truly... you have inspired me more than you know!! Xoxo
I am OBSESSED with your videos! We all have off weeks where we just run around and do things for ourselves-necessary to keep living our lives AND our sanity!! Thank you for promoting positivity in this not always positive world :)
Michelle, I love your videos, how candid you are and honest about not only teaching, but life. I truly enjoy watching your videos and I think it is great that Billy is getting more involved in your summer videos. It is important to have someone by your side that is willing to support you in what you do, so I want to also give a shout out to Billy and what an awesome job he is doing in supporting you in your dreams. Keep bringing smiles to everyone's faces Michelle, thank you.
I am an aspiring teacher out of Missouri, and I've been watching these videos since the beging and now even my mother watches them. I think you are so inspirational thank you fir these weekly uploads!
You seriously motivate me to be a better teacher! Seeing you be so productive and positive pushes me to do the same. Thank you for allowing us into your world. I seriously wake up ever Saturday morning looking forward to your Vlogs! Keep doing what you're doing!! 😊💕
Who else is so excited to see her classroom?!😍 You and Billy are the cutest couple. I feel like y'alls personality matches so well! Love your videos Michelle, I can't wait to have my own classroom! You're such an inspiration ❤️📚
I love your videos. You are so real in them. I love that you do try to make things seem what they are not. Good luck with starting the school year. I am a first year second grade teacher.
My husband and I had so much fun watching you and Billy playing games. For some reason we stopped doing that, and you guys have reminded us just how much fun we used to have. That kitten place is the coolest place ever!
I just wanted to THANK YOU. I Love watching your vlogs first thing Saturday morning. They put such a HUGE smile on my face. I found your youtube channel earlier this summer. You have inspired me to change so many things in my classroom for this coming year. I hope you have an amazing year. I am looking forward to all of your school vlogs. Enjoy the remainder of your summer.
So I was a fourth grader about 2 years ago so here's some advice 1) let kids chew gum 2) remember fourth grade is not second grade but it's also not middle school so the kids want to play games but want to feel older 3) be a fun teacher but at the same time it is important to make sure students are learning 4) if you have to talk to your students about something that happened (bullying…) make them sit in their desks and stop talking then let them join the conversation my teacher did this in fifth grade (last year) and it really did good 😊 That's all
I just love how real you are with all of your vlogs. During the school year you don't only show the glitz and glamour of teaching. You show the awesome, good, bad, and ugly sides of teaching. So Thank You!!!
Mrs. Ferre, Thank you for all that you do! This school year I am staying A LOT more organized because of all of your tips and hacks. I know that some of the RU-vidrs don't feel appreciated, so I wanted to make sure that you knew that I appreciate you and all that you do!!
You are 100% Teacher Goals! I started watching you as a student teacher, and in a couple of weeks, I begin my first year of teaching! I will be teaching freshman and sophomore ELA. It is really rare to get hired right out of college in my district, but part of the reason I think I did is because I followed your example. I bought your interview prep, portfolio pack, and resume and cover letter templates. It helped me rock the interview, and made me much more prepared than some of the other candiates. SO - this is just my long-winded way to say thank you for leading by example and providing awesome products. You rock!
With just over 1 year, you have come so far with your TPT business and with RU-vid. Thank you for your dedication for helping other teachers, helping your students, and being a positive role model to anyone who comes across your channel! :)
I'm not a teacher but I'm a senior doing my undergrad in Finance and tutor strictly finance for my campus. I have to say you've helped me with organization ideas as well as ideas for bulletin boards and tutor resources that I can't wait to put to use during the year as some of the stuff I have been able to use with summer MBA tutorees has been really well received. Thank you Michelle! :)
Good Morning Michelle! You are my Saturday morning tradition-coffee and pocketful of primary vlog! I am a first year third grade teacher in eastern North Carolina. I have been busy this summer buying TONS of stuff for my classroom. You know how it goes! I would love to get a Grumpy Teacher book to add to my growing classroom library. I love your push for positivity and am happy to share that the teachers at my school have been amazing and welcoming me to the school and the team. A good attitude and positive vibes can go a long way. :) #Billylivesmatter
I'm so excited to see the ideas you come up with for fourth grade math. I also teach fourth grade math. Thanks for all of the great videos and for encouraging kindness. Keep being awesome and spreading joy.
Even though I'm not a teacher. I absolutely love your videos. I may plan on homeschooling my children in the future and learning about TPT and the wonderful teaching strategies you've shared make me feel a lot less worried about teaching my own children.
Hi Michelle!!! I'm a 2nd grade teacher in Texas. I live in a small town and am fortunate enough to have a very helpful principal and counselor. Im so happy for you! I hope you have a great year!!! love your vlogs!💕❤️👍
I have been feeling the same lately. I was taking summer courses and a part time job with almost full time hours so when I do have off I feel like I'm busy but haven't been productive. Absolutely love your videos, I'm graduated in a year and love all your teacher tips and ideas.
Another great video. Tell Billy he's not the only one who puts FF on his burger. It's a great combo! 😊 That Grumpy Teacher book looks like a funny book.
As someone who is going into their last year of undergrad studying elementary education, I always look forward to watching your newest videos-- especially your vlogs. Your little coffee area turned out so cute! I totally understand your obsession with TJMaxx & HomeGoods. Shopping there should basically be considered a sport.
Your blogs are life! I always look forward to them on Saturday! Oh and please post that weekly grocery shopping list! It looks like it would make my shopping way more productive.
Hi Michelle, I enjoyed the weekly vlog. I know you may not have given many tips in this week's vlog but one tip I do intend to utilize is the Dollar Tree clear stand idea for Open House. I'm a second grade teacher. Who loves to implement new ideas. I love how Billy was excited about having burgers for the week. It reminded me of my husband's reaction to food, lol. Lastly, because of this vlog I decided to send a love text to my honey. Thanks for spreading positivity:)! It's one of the many reason I subscribe to your channel.
Michelle! Thank you so much for always posting videos and making time to create material for us! I always get so excited when you post. Also, thank you for being a positive teaching role model. As a first year teacher, I am always looking for fresh ideas, content and materials to up my game and your ideas never fail. I am so excited for your fourth grade journey and I wish you all the best! Thanks again. Hoping you have a fantastic school year.
