The Next Two Months
Working to ensure success in the rest of the program
First – some quiet contemplation
Three questions
First Question Think over all your teachers over the years. Who was the single best teacher you’ve
ever had?
Second Question What was their name?
Third Question What was it about that teacher that led you
to choose them?
Let’s collate a little
You could also try this another way
Think over all your teachers over the years. Who was the single worst teacher you’ve
ever had? What was their name? What was it about that teacher that led you
to choose them?
So …? What does this tell you about what things
are really important in a good teacher? What does it tell you about what you should
keep in mind as you develop as a teacher over the next few months?
