In this episode, Dustin and Ghazali welcome Marlene Tapia Garcia to talk about what it really takes to move growth mindset beyond classroom posters and into daily practice that creates more equitable learning opportunities. Marlene shares how students’ confidence is shaped by past experiences and why “I can’t” often reflects learned beliefs—not ability. She explains how teachers can build systems that make growth visible and attainable, including self-paced and mastery-based structures, consistent feedback, meaningful revision opportunities, and student leadership roles like peer “teacher assistants.” Marlene also brings in her perspective as an educator from Mexico working in a two-way dual language setting, highlighting how language, belonging, and classroom culture play a powerful role in helping students take academic risks. This conversation is full of real classroom examples and practical moves for educators who want every student to feel supported, capable, and challenged.
