Welcome and Bienvenidos!
Teaching has gotten tougher! Hasn’t it! I’ve been at it for over 30 years and I can tell you that the requirements for teachers and the stresses of teaching have gotten higher. But I’m here to help. Hi, I’m Claudio, the Dad from Two Boys and a Dad.
Whether you’re just starting out as a teacher or a veteran teacher, I’m here to offer you some great ideas, timely tips, thoughtful suggestions, effective resources, and a sounding board for your daily classroom struggles (and successes!).

As an experienced (another nice way of saying veteran…LOL) elementary teacher, instructional coach, and a parent of 2 teenage boys, I’ve seen it all while experiencing all those ups and downs of teaching. I can tell you what’s going to work and what’s not. That’s part of being a reflective teacher. At the end of the day, I always asked myself – Did that work? Why did it work? Why didn’t it work? What do I need to change?
