Do you control your time, or does time control you? In this hands-on workshop, we'll explore both digital and traditional tools to organise your teaching materials. Imagine never having to check homework again! Learn to work effectively in your teaching kitchen, and discover which of your teaching materials should go in the fridge, which to the freezer, and which are just fine in the pantry. Take home a collection of my favourite ready-to-use activities for teens and leave equipped with a 'second brain' that will reclaim your time and allow you to focus on what you’re best at: teaching.
