Students as Change Agents
Jeff Delp was having some doubts in the beginning of his post. Until he watches his students become great difference makers. He stated, "I can not help but marvel at the learning experiences derived
from truly empowering students — allowing them to recognize their
potential to work as agents of change." I respect and admire him for being such a strong and loyal educator.
When Teaching Gets Tough
"Teaching, while potentially very rewarding, is an extremely challenging profession." This is something I already accept and know to be true about teaching. Jeff Delp pointed out wonderful things for me to remember and realize through this journey on becoming an educator.
Live as if there is no tomorrow, and don't worry about things that you have no control over and cannot change.
If you want your life to be a magnificent story, then begin by realizing
that you are the author and every day you have the opportunity to write
a new page. ~ Mark Houlahan (from When Teaching Gets Tough)
