Ouote by Dr. Deborah Stipek
"Teachers can motivate students only if they themselves are motivated. They can make students feel valued and secure only if they feel valued and secure; they can foster enthusiasm for learning in students only if they are enthusiastic about teaching. The school culture can make or break a teacher in the same way that the classroom culture can support or undermine students' efforts to learn."
What makes me feel motivated is that my children are learning from me everyday. Just as I learn from them. I have fun in the classroom.
ReplyDeleteI can always tell when my children are excited by a teacher! They want to do well in that class and work extra hard. If all teachers worked in a culture of excellence, imagine what our students could achieve!
