Making Teaching Feel Good Again.
Well Taught is about helping teachers create happy, inclusive, and well-run classrooms, without the overwhelm.Think of it as your teaching sidekick, packed with tips, tricks, and tools that actually work. With ready-to-use tools, creative ideas, and a big splash of encouragement, it’s your go-to guide for making teaching feel good again.I’m here to help you wrangle the wild child and encourage the class clown by celebrating every learner. From classroom chaos to an energised calm, from feeling stuck to super-inspired, I’ve got your back. Together, we’re building brighter classrooms where every student, and teacher, can shine.
Enter The Quarry: Where Social Skills are Forged
Social-communication shouldn't feel like a chore. At The Quarry, we use the immersive power of tabletop role-playing games to help neurodivergent teens build real-world confidence.Supervised by Board Certified Behavior Analyst, our small-group "parties" provide a safe, structured space to practice collaboration, master social cues, and solve complex problems together. It’s clinical social therapy that feels like the adventure of a lifetime.

Expert-Led.
Evidence-Based.
Whether it’s a classroom or a tabletop dungeon, behavior is the language of connection. I created Well Taught to translate complex behavioral science into practical, joyful mastery for teachers and families alike.

About Me
Hey y’all! I’m Shelby, a Board Certified Behavior Analyst and school guidance counselor who believes the best way to shape the future is by nurturing the hearts and minds we teach today.With over a decade of experience in education, I’ve worn a lot of hats: early interventionist specializing in functional communication, special educator for students with Autism, mentor to teachers on inclusive practices, and behavior interventionist for kids with all kinds of superpowers. My work has always centered around helping every child feel seen, supported, and successful.Academically, I earned my Bachelor of Science in Human Development and Family Studies from Texas Tech University, a Master’s in Guidance and Counseling from Angelo State University, and a post-master’s certificate in Behavior Analysis from Reykjavik University. I’m certified as a BCBA in the USA, an International Behavior Analyst (IBA) a clinical behavior analyst in Iceland (yes, Iceland!) as well as a school counselor in Iceland.I started Well Taught with one goal in mind: to help build inclusive classrooms where both teachers and students feel understood, empowered, and joyful in the work they do every day. This platform is a response to what I’ve witnessed firsthand, passionate teachers burning out from power struggles, educators stretched thin trying to support diverse needs, and students quietly slipping through the cracks. Teachers deserve better. Our kids deserve better. Well Taught is here to offer real tools, fresh ideas, and a joyful way forward.When I’m not dreaming up spontaneous lesson plans or designing classroom supports, you’ll find me planning my next Disney trip, singing and dancing with my daughters, or baking something way too sweet for coffee time with my family.Thanks for stopping by, I’m so glad you’re here. 💛
