Maybe in the olden days you could just write a blog and it would help. But with more sophisticated algorithms, a mediocre blog can actually hurt you in the long run AND the immediate.

Here are some tips for making sure your blog works for you and not against you. And if you want more, I have a full length blog on my website at www.TaraCloudClark.com.

When you go to write a blog and leading into it you realize you have a whole other blog so you focus on that and then leading into that you realize you have a whole other 'nother blog... but then that blog isn't enough stand alone but it's important to stand alone so you just go with it.

And then you say something you think is funny, realize it may not be appropriate but leave it in anyway, and then love it so much you make a graphic out of it.

Maybe this will hurt my chances of someone hiring me. But at least I won't get fired for it.

Graphic in comments if you'd like.

Before you start looking at the ways to improve SEO, get a gist of what SEO actually is.

Hashtags can be a powerful way to increase your reach, but when done haphazardly, they can do more harm than good.

For more information on how to use hashtags on Instagram, take a look at my blog, link in the comments.

I was incredibly blessed to spend a lot of time with my niece and nephew this summer (Megan’s kids).

My nephew is almost 11 and homeschooled. On another visit we were talking about vocabulary words and how when I was little, and my teacher would ask us to write sentences for each of the words, I’d put as many of the words into one sentence as possible. It was an act of rebellion (now I know it to be a “gifted” trait... sometimes rebellion in children is a sign of a special need to be challenged or accommodated!)

My nephew’s curriculum requires him to do the same thing, and I asked him to share it with me. So every Friday I get a lovely sentence from him. Makes my day!

Today he also illustrated it! Which is fantastic for his learning!!!

If you ever get the chance do “do school” with the kids you love, do it! This is HUGE in creating bonds as well as normalizing learning. You don’t have to know and understand what they’re learning. IN FACT the best thing you can do is have them teach you!!!

Years ago, part of my job was to organize a service project in honor of MLK Jr.

I knew almost nothing about him, to be honest.

I took the job coordinating service projects for my resume and contacts.

I didn’t realize my life would be readjusted so much that I would from then on constantly long to serve.

So in planning the MLK Day of Service event, I came across this section of MLK’s “Drum Major Instinct” speech.

I feel a call to serve in education. I feel a call more than ever to address the inequities in public education and community resources. I feel called to serve our most vulnerable populations.
