The Teachers Impact Podcast is a weekly education podcast that shares the opinions, experiences and innovative ideas of teachers to improve the education system. All teachers voices are important and therefore bring a unique perspective to the education system. Ultimately, the goal is to leave listeners feeling empowered to use their voices, master their craft and enhance student learning. This will help to improve our communities and the world.

The Teacher’s Impact Podcast is where classroom strategy meets soul. Hosted by certified educator Shanimarie Ogilvie, this podcast elevates teacher voices, explores innovative classroom ideas, and shares real-world expertise to support and inspire elementary educators.
Whether you’re looking for classroom management tips, differentiated instruction, reflective teaching practices, or mental health support, this show is your go-to resource for navigating the joys and challenges of teaching.
Named one of Feedspot’s Top 100 Classroom Podcasts in 2023, this trusted show helps teachers enhance student learning, improve their craft, and prioritize their well-being—one honest episode at a time.
In this episode, I share how The First Days of School by Harry Wong shaped my classroom management approach and why its core strategies still work today. Learn about clear procedures, consistency, and positive expectations—and how I’ve adapted these ideas for modern classrooms.
