DO YOUR BEST, FORGET THE REST!

If you’re looking for a permission slip to truly embrace the teacher you are, then look no further than this amazing interview with Ceri Sandford. This passionate woman behind the powerhouse Wine with teacher club and podcast goes deep with me as we discuss some of the challenges of teaching.

We discuss some commonly shared feelings amongst teachers such as:

  • Am I the only teacher who feels like im winging it all of the time?
  • Am I the only teacher who has cried in front of a class?
  • Am I the only teacher who feels hopeless not knowing how to address all of the individual needs in the classroom?
  • Am I the only teacher who feels like im doing a bad job and i don’t fit in as a teacher?
  • Am I the only teacher who feels like i am not doing a good enough job even though I leave work exhausted every day?

So if you have ever felt one of the above, this episode is sure to make you feel less alone, whilst giving you some solid strategies to help you overcome it.
