This episode originally aired under Keeping It Real with Dr. Ruthie Payno-Simmons.
In this podcast episode, I sit down with my son’s seventh-grade English teacher, Dr. McGarry, for a candid, unfiltered conversation about belonging, representation, and the 3 V’s—voice, visibility, and validation. Dr. McGarry shares how teachers can truly listen to students, transform classrooms, and uncover the identities of every learner. Expect real stories, practical insights, and thoughtful reflection that will inspire educators to think differently about their practice and their role in fostering belonging and representation.
