Teach to Grow

By Maryam Meredith

Teach to Grow came to fruition after many conversations amongst ourselves and other educators talking about what they wish they knew about teaching before beginning their journeys. There was a common trend between veteran and new teachers that there are pitfalls that you fall into, so we wanted to teach you how to grow through these obstacles as they come your way! This will be a positive resource for you. We want to educate you to be prepared for possible obstacles. We want to show you how to go through a challenge, learn from it, and use it to build your passion for teaching!

Teach to Grow: Episode 3: The Why

Teach to Grow: Episode 3: The Why

Happy Friday everyone and welcome to Teach to Grow Episode 3: The Why! In today’s episode, Maryam and I tackle the topic of recognizing the why behind the behaviors. Behaviors are a form of communication, but can look different for each of our students. We chat about how to understand what your child is trying to communicate to you through this behavior. Our challenge to each of you is to take a few minutes today or throughout the week to reflect on your WHY. Why do you wake up to go to school? Why are you a teacher? Why do you stay during difficult situations with your kids? Honesty with yourself will help you grow into a stronger educator and benefit your kids.
