It's no secret that teaching is a rewarding but difficult job. Many teachers go into the career only to become overwhelmed, disillusioned, disheartened, and lost. Could have this been prevented? Possibly, but only if they had examined their own mindset and determined if they were truly ready for the challenges of teaching. Questions to ask yourself: Are you a blamer? Do you have thick skin? Do you like the sounds of kids' voices more than your own? When was the last time someone changed your mind? Are your educational policies, procedures, and philosophies truly serving students and learning? Love this show? Become an AWESOME SUPPORTER! Don't forget to leave a voicemail!
