TeacheradeYour First Years of Teaching Shouldn't Feel Like Drowning
1-on-1 mentoring from experienced teachers who've been exactly where you are — at a tough school, overwhelmed, and figuring it out alone. Go from surviving to thriving.
Sound familiar?
If any of these hit home, you're in the right place.
The Sunday Scaries hit you every single week
That sinking feeling on Sunday night. The dread. The 'what am I walking into tomorrow?' loop that won't stop.
Classroom management feels impossible some days
You've tried the strategies. They worked for a day. Then didn't. You're tired of raising your voice and feeling guilty.
You're excited but nervous about being a first year teacher
You know that you want to be a teacher. You want to do this work. But you are nervous to see if student teaching prepared you for the school you'll be at.
You're exhausted by October and questioning everything
You thought you'd love this. Now you're wondering if you made a mistake. Spoiler: you didn't. You need support.
You're drowning in behavior issues, admin demands, and lesson planning all at once
There are too many fires and not enough hands. Every day feels like survival mode.
You feel completely alone in this
No one around you seems to get it. Your friends don't. Your family doesn't. And your colleagues are barely holding on too.
What if you had a mentor who actually gets it?
Teacherade connects you with a handpicked experienced teacher who has been in your shoes and that can help you with your specific problems.
Not your admin. Not an insurance salesperson at your faculty meeting. Not the consultant at your 8 hour training the day before school starts. A real teacher who lived your exact situation and knows what actually works.
Two options. Guaranteed satisfaction or every dollar back.
Satisfaction Guaranteed or Full Refund
100% Satisfaction Guaranteed — If you don't find value in your session, we refund every dollar. No questions asked. No awkward emails. Just a refund.

Built by a teacher who lived this
This was me during my first year of teaching at a Title I school. I was burnt out, overwhelmed and always felt like I was drowning. The school had assigned a mentor teacher for me but she was a net negative for my mental health. I struggled with classroom management, dealing with difficult students and engaging kids.
I knew that I wanted to be a teacher but I was constantly questioning my decision. The Sunday scaries were there every weekend. I remember that pit in my stomach on Sunday night and driving to work every day not knowing what to expect that day.
I built Teacherade because every teacher does not have a strong support system in their school. You do not have to be lonely or burn yourself out. There is a network of teacher mentors on this platform waiting to help you!

Real teachers. Real breakthroughs.
First-year teachers who walked in feeling overwhelmed and left with a clear plan.
"Ashley was a breath of fresh air. I was allowed to ask real questions with someone who actually is walking in it everyday. It's what a first year teacher needs for the anxiety. Walking out I felt confident in my ability going into my first year...before the session, I had a lot of doubts."
Dee Jones
1st Grade Teacher in South County Schools District
"I felt confident and relieved over my issues. My mentor explained solutions quite thoroughly, which gave me a different creative perspective. Jasmine gave me some tremendous new ideas and new viewpoints around the problems that I was having lately. I would like to actively apply those ideologies directly into my teaching."
Talat Naz
High School Science Teacher in Spring ISD (Houston area)
"I felt encouraged walking out of today's session with Sue. I found the session with her to be very productive and interesting. She shared resources and tips that actually moved the needle for me!"
