Description

In this heartfelt new episode of Teach Me, Teacher, we sit down with Josh Monroe—the inspiring 5th-grade teacher behind the TikTok sensation @mrmonroeandnala, where he shares heartwarming and thought-provoking classroom moments alongside his therapy dog, Nala TikTok (though things have changed). Josh is also the co-host of the acclaimed podcast What the World Needs Now, where he and fellow educator Tom Whisinnand explore what keeps teachers motivated while uplifting educator voices from around the world.

Together, we explore the concept of “hidden standards”—the unspoken social expectations like listening empathetically, speaking kindly, and treating one another with respect. Josh shares why teaching content is only half the job and introduces audiences to classroom strategies that embed social-skill building into everyday teaching. Expect practical ideas for cultivating empathy, communication, and ethical behavior—because growing good humans matters as much as grade-level success.

Educators and parents, get ready to learn how to turn your classroom or home into a place where kindness is just as important as curriculum—and then some. Tune in now to reframe how we teach, how children learn to engage, and how we all build better communities, one conversation at a time.
