The Mission

G.U.T. Checks is dedicated to serving first-year teachers and school leaders by delivering practical, strategic advice focused on effective teaching methods. My goal is to empower educators to elevate their practices through shared insights. By bridging the gap between teachers and administrators, we can foster professional growth and accountability. I aspire to not only support but also inspire educators in their journey to create impactful learning environments.

Let's Develop a Healthy G.U.T. Together!

About Me:

My name is Emmie Crement, and I just finished by 24th year in Education. I have been a classroom teacher, a reading specialist, an instructional coach, a principal, and I now serve as an Assistant Superintendent in a preK-8 school district outside of Chicago. 

Throughout my career, I have been a dedicated learner of best-practices in instruction and educational leadership. 

I decided to write this blog to help early career teachers become effective quickly, so they can sooner find the joy in teaching. I also wrote it for administrators and coaches who support early career teachers so that they can be clear, consistent and effective.

Most of all, I wrote it for students. Because every student deserved an impactful, passionate teacher.
