A skill every teacher should have!
Should every teacher have a degree?
Well, in this day and age, you’d hope! But does that fashion out a great educator? Of course not!
I have the degree. I have the emotional intelligence (or so I hope). I’m a communicator.
But what is my ultimate skill as a teacher?
…I’m curious enough to discover greatness.
So many students pass through my classes…
Some who have learned the rules well, and know how to play the grades game… others who need help along the way. who need someone to clear the path with them…and it is these others… these incredible finds that keep me thrilled!
These students who want something, but find it so elusive! It is here that I see potential.
Some might critique me as being too naive, as constantly finding something to admire, but it’s true!
I see people as pieces of a puzzle, with every person having a little bit to add, some more than others.
And this blog post is a tribute to one of these pieces…one who turns 20 tonight… one who’s finally getting the recognition he needs to find his path…
One who has begun to realize the unique glue which binds him to others and places him firmly within the puzzle.
As we all complete a beautiful vision together.
One more thing…the minute you find yourself judging a person and consider them as lacking in value, take a brief moment and stop and consider this: maybe YOU aren’t using the right measuring tape.
Maybe YOUR vision is the one that’s skewed. And get some glasses for people’s sake.
