As this strange and stressful school year lurches towards the holiday break, listen in on how teachers are coping on Ed - Conversations about the Teaching Life, an interview show hosted by Elk Island Public Schools teacher Shane Lawrence.

Every week, Lawrence shares a conversation he's had with an educator from anywhere in the world. Once a month, he puts out an extra "check-in" with a roundtable of colleagues who bounce their wins, fails, lessons, and self-care tips off each other. The podcast is "about teaching, but it's also about the lives we live as teachers — our passions and struggles not only in the classroom, but beyond as well," he writes.

Edmonton listeners may be particularly interested in Conversation 149: More Ears in the Conversation with Sarah Adomako-Ansah and Andrew Parker, Conversation 148: This is Your World with Linda Hut, and Conversation 137: Emergency Response Teaching with Dan Scratch. But all of the episodes have something to offer, whether you're a teacher or someone who cares for a student.

Disclosure: Ed is a member of the Alberta Podcast Network, which was founded by this recommendation's author.
