Bad Teacher Tales: Real talk stories and advice for teachers and those who love them.
Welcome to Bad Teacher Tales, where each week we share the good, the bad, and the “what the hell?!” of daily teacher life. We’ll expose workplace woes that range from unrealistic to impossibly asinine. We’ll postulate on parental problems and admin antics. We might even learn a helpful tip or trick, and while we may be “Bad” teachers, we will always leave remembering our Why…those beautiful, bright, baffling, students!
Bad Teacher Tales: Real talk stories and advice for teachers and those who love them.
Ep. 37 - What DO Librarians do all day?!
People think librarians sit quietly and read all day.
Jess is here to gently… and accurately… destroy that myth.
From managing chaos to supporting students in ways no one sees, this clip breaks down what librarians actually do during a school day. Spoiler: it’s not silent, slow, or simple.
If you’ve ever underestimated a school librarian, or if you are one and feel wildly unseen, this episode will feel personal.

If you’re a current teacher, former teacher, student teacher, or someone who just loves a good “you won’t believe what happened at school” moment… you’re in the right place.
