I can't stress how important having a colleague that truly understands you is to any teacher. We can't do this alone.

Most teachers have at least one person who has affected their teaching to some degree.

Most teachers have at least one person who has affected their teaching to some degree.
I can point back to at least 3 of my high school English teachers who had the most influence on me becoming an English teacher.
A1: My role model was my first principal when I was a second grade teacher. She expected nothing but the best.
My professor in Fiction made us read one novel per week. She also made us read one Shakespeare play per week. Encouraging reading.
I also credit my upbringing for my professional practices; worked in family-owned store & learned lots about ppl.
These 3: 5th gr. Ms. Crawford. 7th ELA Mrs. Bussey. 12th Teacher Cadets Mrs. Goodman. Want to be like them https://t.co/5qgephp44C

Today, because of my 8th gr teacher Mr. Bell, I use relationships to transform the lives of each student. That's how I became Mama J

My best models for teaching were all "Old School" Teaching, so that is what I went with for years.
Those colleagues are the ones who inspire me now https://t.co/VXf1StxZEH

Moving from "Old School' to a more progressive perspective was more of an evolution than a quick change.
I feel like the sum of many experiences that have had an effect on my practices. Tough to narrow or prioritize impact.
Yes education/learning is a JOURNEY and NOT a Destination.
Similar to changing how we integrate tech in classroom...an evolution
And can't forget impact Ss have had on our teaching. I've created some of my best practices & eliminated bad ones because of them

understanding the perspective is important ... must se teaching through the eyes of the student
Not sure, but I realized that I was the age of young colleagues' parents.They became my kids as well as Ss.

Thank you! This chat is rolling!
Find students interests and use it in teaching has always helped.
. For me, it was a lady who pushed me to overcome my own fears and low confidence. Encouraged me to take risks!
Remember that for students who struggle w/anxiety, 1st day of school can feel insurmountable. Be kind, clear and accessible
Hahaha! Gets attention & encourages people to come IN not stay out.
