62. What is Your Teaching WHY? Do You Know Your Purpose?
In this episode, I tell the story of one of my teaching clients called into the principal's office and her thoughts about the situation.
This event actually helped her:
• Crystallize her WHY: why she was a teacher
• Made her realize that she was not at school for the adults but to server her students
• Empowered her to keep calm and carry on with decisiveness and power.
So what is your teaching WHY? Who are you in the classroom to serve? Why do you do what you do? The answers could change the way you view your job, your week, and your year.
