Educator and Coach 

Welcome.

Thank you for visiting the professional website of Dr. Bethanie Hansen, educator and coach. I have a passion for helping educators thrive so they can serve, teach, and lead with excellence. Most teachers want to lead students to develop their potential and learn a subject area. This involves serving, teaching, and leading confidently. At the same time, we want health and wellbeing, work-life balance, and resilience in our own lives. And because educators give their time and energy to serve, teach, and lead others, it seems these personal goals end up at the bottom of the list. I help in both areas–wellbeing and professional excellence–by sharing personalized tools and brain-based strategies I’ve developed and collected, listening, learning about people, and guiding them to draw on their strengths and abilities. It’s exciting work that brings clarity and confidence to those I work with and keeps me growing, too!

For tips on teaching online or teaching music appreciation, you’re in the right place! Take a look at the Online Teaching Lounge podcast produced by American Public University and shared on this website to get started. The podcast supports online educators in their great work of changing lives through the power of education at a distance while living a balanced life (available through Apple Podcasts, Google Podcasts, Stitcher, Spotify, iHeart Radio, Audible, Amazon Music, and other platforms).
