TARA MARTIN is an educator, administrator, coach, and speaker. She’s also the founder of #BookSnaps, the @DBC_Inc Media & Communications Director, and author of Be REAL: Educate from the Heart.


In our conversation, Tara shares about a tragedy that struck her family during her very first year of teaching, and describes the difficult journey and surprising breakthroughs that followed as a result. She explains the mission behind her book, Be REAL, and gives me some practical advice about how to utilize BookSnaps in my laptop classroom. Tara also talks about her work with Dave Burgess Consulting, offers some hints about the 2020 conference, describes how she stays productive, and points to some of the key voices and influences that shape her thinking and inspire her practice today.
