Elements of an Engaged Educator
From an educator about the Elements of an Engaged Educator:
Zoom out from the Busyness.
See the Big Picture.
Educators discover how keeping the big picture in focus can bring new meaning to their many tasks and responsibilities and help them avoid burnout.
Let go of Certainty.
Lean into Curiosity.
Educators explore how curiosity fosters connection and leave with ways to practice more curiosity with the students, parents and coworkers they interact with every day.
Goodbye, Criticism.
Hello, Compassion!
Educators gain tools for cultivating more self-compassion — an essential first step in self-care and in creating a classroom and school with heart.
Turn down your Static.
Turn up your Music.
Educators rediscover their inspiration for entering the noble profession of education and leave ready to listen to “their music” and give the best of themselves to their students.
Express Gratitude.
Experience Resilience.
Coming soon! Educators learn strategies for developing a personal gratitude practice, which can help them bolster resilience to stress and flourish at work and in life.
