Creating Space to Learn and Laugh with Julie Rudlosky
Julie Rudlosky — an educator in Ohio — didn’t set out to become a classroom comedian, but after 15 years of teaching English, she’s learned that laughter is one of her most powerful tools.
From re-enacting Shakespearean swordfights to creating escape rooms, Rudlosky’s classroom is an environment where students can be themselves, explore creative projects, and truly engage with literature. Even when new curricula bring new challenges, she finds ways to bring joy and resilience into her teaching.
Whether you’re a veteran educator or just entering the profession, Julie’s approach to building rapport while teaching lessons with warmth and humor will leave you inspired.
