KICKSTART YOUR CLASSROOM

Join me in redefining the teaching profession, one mindful moment at a time!

My passion for teaching goes far beyond the confines of the classroom. It's a dedication to ensuring that every teacher, especially new ones, can confidently step into their role and foster positive change in their students' lives. The turning point for me was a heartbreaking personal loss in December 2017 when I lost someone very close.

Seeing teachers who had recognized signs that my family member was struggling, yet were stretched to their limits, truly touched my heart. It became crystal clear that teachers needed more support, not only for their students but also for themselves. This realization formed the bedrock of 'The Present Teacher.' I'm committed to helping educators show up as their best selves, not only for their students but also for their own well-being.

Teaching is my life's purpose, and as I transition out of the classroom, I'm driven to ensure that upcoming teachers have the resources and guidance they need to flourish and make the impact they were destined to achieve. My goal is to empower educators to create a future where no teacher is overwhelmed by burnout, where districts provide adequate support, and where teachers feel confident in their ability to be present and make a difference.

At 'The Present Teacher,' my mission is clear: I'm here to support teachers on their journey to becoming the best version of themselves. If you're here to embark on this transformative path, you've come to the right place.

👉 Navigate the Classroom with Confidence: Whether you're a new teacher or a seasoned educator seeking to enhance your classroom management skills, I'm here to provide the guidance and resources you need. Together, we'll create systems that allow you to focus on what truly matters: meaningful interactions with your students.

👉 Prioritize Teacher Wellness: Teaching is demanding, and self-care often takes a backseat. I understand this struggle intimately. If you're ready to prioritize your own well-being, I can help you develop strategies for maintaining a healthy work-life balance and managing the pressures of the profession.

“Thank you so much!!!! Your advice has really helped me. I started 2 days ago, so I’ve been learning as much as I can and trying to get caught up since students started 3 weeks ago!! Today I spent all class teaching class discussions and modeling them and having them practice several times. It really helps to show them what I expect and hold them to it as I know you’ve talked about!!”

-Bre M.

“I felt so much better about starting this school year. In the past, I’ve always started the school year feeling behind. But after joining the other members over the summer, I finally had a layout I loved, and things organized. I even had the first week ready before the first day of school. Thank you so much Helena for putting this program together!”

-Kathleen A.

“I used to think I couldn’t get it all done during the work week, but now I know it’s possible with systems in place!”

-Miranda A.

“The biggest thing I’ve taken away so far is that time management and boundaries go hand in hand. Without one, you can’t succeed!”
