Reclaiming the Courage to Teach: Empowering Self and Empowering Others
Thursday October 24, 2024 1:50pm - 2:50pm EDT

Teaching is wonderful and beautiful and hard and complex. There are days when all is as it should be in the classroom, and there are days it can leave us questioning who we are and why we do what we do. In this session we will discuss how having a strong sense of identity, purpose and security as teachers and as people made in the image of God can spur us on in our work, and how we can help each other remember who we are and whose we are.
