Dr. Gibson is a leading voice in education and mental health, and our chat covered so many essential topics that every teacher, parent, and learner will find something to take away from it.
🎙️ What we talked about:
The everyday reality of teaching in primary schools.
How understanding child psychology can transform classroom practice.
Supporting young people in the digital age.
The power of reading in unlocking potential.
How to talk to kids about difficult topics.
And crucially: how teachers can look after their own mental health and avoid burnout.
Dr. Gibson brings a wealth of experience, from her time teaching in London schools to her groundbreaking research and her latest book, Who Am I Teaching: How a Better Understanding of Children Improves Primary Teaching and Learning. Her work is a reminder of how much impact a thoughtful, well-supported teacher can have.
