Dear White Teacher is a podcast and platform to support white teachers who work in urban schools
This teacher has gone viral for going live while allowing young ladies from his school to assist in taking his hair down. There has been plenty of praise for his relationship with his students as well as criticism from some who feel this is innapropriate. Weigh in!!

Super excited to facilitate DWT workshops with future and current educators, administrators, and counselors at . This is an amazing opportunity and grateful for the call to serve and make an impact on the world of education. If you are in the area meet me there!!!
I am Brandon R. Scarborough and I was asked why should you listen to the dear white teacher podcast? Why should you listen to the dear white teacher course? Why should you listen to me? I answered in the video LOL! But seriously, I love what I do. I love helping, cultivating, shaping, and molding teachers and students. I dove into this lane on purpose because I know that there are white teachers yearning for information and strategies on building and maintaining relationships with black and brown students and much more that won’t come by way of sitting in a room with hundreds of teachers and never getting to ask questions you need answers to. I provide an intimate and safe space to learn, ask questions, and share experiences without judgment or criticism. Visit dearwhiteteacher.com today and take the course. It’s short and inexpensive. Why? Because I respect your time and your money!

Each student has different needs and will need different resources to meet them. What steps do you take to make sure each of your students needs are met?
Happy Teachers Appreciation Week. Your hard work does not go unnoticed!
We hear often of white teachers who go to college, do their student teaching and they do so in classrooms and schools where everyone looks like them. Upon graduation, the fastest job to get is teaching in an urban school where the majority population is black and brown students, and teachers are now scrambling to figure out how to engage this population and seeing personalities and traumas that they have never experienced.
Can anyone resonate with this? How can we change this narrative?
Dr. House shares her thoughts on how student teaching should be more reflective of every environment, especially urban classrooms where teachers are usually able to find jobs quickly after finishing college. Dr. House was our guest on episode 8 called "Non-negotiables in the classroom." Be sure to check out the whole episode!
What are your thoughts on student teaching? Did your experience give you a full view of how diverse classrooms really are?

I had the awesome opportunity to lead professional development sessions with teachers, counselors, and educators at Walsh Jesuit High School speaking on relationship building strategies with students of color.

Many young teachers desire to teach in familiar spaces and the reality becomes there are no job opportunities for them and they have to go to unfamiliar spaces where they are unfamiliar with the audience. That is where the disconnect comes in…Any teachers our there experience this? #education #diversity #students #classroom #equity #urbanstudent #college #teachers #dearwhiteteacher #minoritystudent

Hair in the black community can be a cultural phenomenon that draws great interest. In this episode, James Talbert was able to use a white student touching a black students hair as a moment to not only teach his students, which are mostly white in his learning environment, but to also advocate for the young man who was violated. What are you doing to publicly advocate for your students?
Many times teachers find themselves in situations with students that they have not cultivated authentic relationships with which could be a barrier to finding a resolve. Principal Cook advises build it before you need it! #teachers #classroom #strategies #education #relationships #race #culture #blackstudents #whiteteachers #urbaneducation #dearwhiteteacher
