We will examine the idea that in order to meet the needs of our learners, today's teacher must be strong, determined, and heroic. Teaching is not for the faint of heart. If you are strong enough to teach-speak out and let your voice be heard!

Video Clips
Here are six video clips that are captivating and not just for teachers. Warning, one is "R" rated but worthy of your review.
I am a Professor of Education with an intense interest in supporting teachers. I have 11 years of experience as a classroom teacher and assistant principal in both elementary and middle schools and I was a teacher trainer for two years before finding my true calling in higher education 10 years ago. In addition to teaching, I love to write textbook supplements like teacher resource guides, test banks and student study guides. Most of my publications are with Pearson Publishing in the areas of Educational Psychology and Introduction to Teaching although I have written Educational Research supplements and provided website material for various Pearson products.
I am married and have two wonderful young daughters who make the need for great teachers crystal clear! So here's to hoping you will teach my kids someday!
(I also participate in pet rescue and fostering so my house is pretty crazy sometimes!)
