This week I talk to veteran teacher Shannon Hazel, author of the new book New Teacher Confidential: What They Didn’t Tell You About Being a Teacher. We talk all things teacher burnout including steps to sustain you if you’ve given all you’ve got in the tank. 

Shannon Hazel is a recently-retired public school teacher and the author of the upcoming book New Teacher Confidential: What They Didn’t Tell You About Being a Teacher. Over her 25-year career, she was a K-8 teacher, special education specialist and instructional coach for teachers.   During that time, she was actively involved in the Elementary Teachers Federation of Ontario and mentored many new teachers.  In 2023, Shannon was recognized for her leadership and advocacy work for students by the Council for Exceptional Children. She is the founder of teacherEDU.ca, an online community for teachers to learn, connect, collaborate, and grow their capacity as educators. Shannon is the mother of two young adults, a dog parent and a longtime fan of the Kansas City Chiefs.
