It started with a prayer and an idea
What began in frustration became a framework for peace, purpose, and powerful teaching.
Creator of the S.N.A.P. Method™
S.N.A.P. Method™ is a mindset shift for educators. It’s not just another to-do list or behavior chart. It’s a practical, powerful shift in how you show up for your students and yourself. You don’t have to be spiritual to use this, but I created it through prayer, hallway tears, and the realization that teachers need tools that support the whole person.
Summer Rest & Reset for Teachers
Some seasons challenge your energy more than others. They test your motivation, even your mindset. This video guides you through a summer reset using the S.N.A.P. Framework (Stop. Notice. Act. Plan).

Walking Into the Building with New Mindset
In this video, I share a quick but powerful reminder to help educators transition from survival mode to purposeful presence. Whether you’re dealing with new policies, difficult behaviors, or the burden of burnout, this is your invitation to reset, realign, and step in with clarity, not chaos.
It Begins with a Conviction
In this video, I reflect on what it means to lead with vision, especially when conditions aren’t perfect. Inspired by The Ron Clark Story, this is a heartfelt reminder that the most transformational work doesn’t begin with a building… it begins with belief. If you’ve ever felt the nudge to create something more for your students, this is your invitation to stop, notice, act, and plan with conviction. Your classroom might just be the starting point for something extraordinary.
In this video, I share how a single phone call to parents before the school year even begins can transform the way you connect with families. When parents feel like partners, problem-solving becomes collaboration, not conflict.
Takeaway: If you want parents to answer the phone when it matters most, start with a call that’s about connection.
Let’s link arms with families and show students a powerful truth: We believe in you, and we’re working together for you.
The Powerof the First Call
Before You Mark a Child Absent
In this video, you will learn that every absence has a story. It reminds us that behind attendance numbers are real students facing real struggles. Through the S.N.A.P. Method™ (Stop, Notice, Act, Plan), educators can respond with empathy and understanding rather than making quick judgments. ✦ S – Stop: Pause before assuming. ✦ N – Notice: Look for patterns and silent signals. ✦ A – Act: Reach out with compassion. ✦ P – Plan: Collaborate with families to provide support.

Some moments in the classroom test your patience more than others. They test your purpose. This video guides you through SS.N.A.P. Method™ (Stop. Notice. Act. Plan), with faith as your foundation.

Teacher Declaration (Pt. 1)
In this video, I share a powerful Teacher Declaration to help you start the school year with intention, not just preparation. It’s more than a motivational moment. It’s a reset for your spirit. Speak life. Lead with peace. Declare it before the year begins.
Your Influence Over New Teachers
In this video, I explore how our words shape school culture. What we say in lounges and hallways doesn’t just affect students, it influences fellow teachers, too. Let’s speak with purpose and create a climate worth staying in.
Scripture Reference:
"Let no corrupt communication proceed out of your mouth, but only what is helpful for building others up..." – Ephesians 4:29
In this video, I share why I believe one positive call home can change everything. Not for discipline. Not to blame. But for something greater—connection. One call built trust, opened doors, and reminded me that when parents and teachers walk together, kids run stronger.
Teaching has its storms, but connection brings peace amidst them. That’s why I’ll keep calling, not just when things go wrong, but to celebrate what’s going right.
One Call
Handling Difficult Students
Got a student who keeps talking back? You’re not alone. Instead of reacting, what if you responded with intention and grace? In this video, Dr. Rolingson introduces the S.N.A.P. Method™ (Stop. Notice. Act. Plan).

Climate and Culture

Teacher Declaration (Pt. 2)
In this video, speak life over every layer of your educational journey: the classroom, students, the families you partner with, coworkers, leaders, and, most importantly, your mindset. It is a powerful reminder that what we declare sets the tone for what we build:
“Death and life are in the power of the tongue…” – Proverbs 18:21.
The Weight of Your Words
In this video, we explore the power of words and how choosing them wisely can shape classrooms, relationships, and personal growth. It’s a reminder that what we speak can heal, inspire, and build or wound and divide: “Let your speech always be gracious, seasoned with salt…” – Colossians 4:6.
In this video, I share that teaching isn’t painless, and the storms in the classroom can feel overwhelming. But walking away isn’t the answer. Showing up, even when it hurts and when fear is real, is an act of revolution. This is for every educator who chooses to stay, to stand, and to keep believing in what’s possible.
Isaiah 41:10 (Strength in fear)
"Fear not, for I am with you; be not dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you, I will help you, I will uphold you with my righteous right hand."
I Am Still Here
