Some Reasources For Teachers

I'm not (by any account) always the best teacher. I do all right - ry (and sometimes even succeed), but I have a few personal characteristics that sometimes work against me. First, I have a certain, shall we say, lack of interpersonal skills and an occasional inability to pick up on cues (insert joke about faculty member with mild Asberger's here). In addition, I have a tendency to become a bit sarcastic under stress, and that never plays well in the classroom.

But, much like the palace eunuch, even if I can't replicate it while it's happening all around me, I know it when I see it.

I saw it today when I came across Joe Ben Hoyle's website. He's an accounting professor at the University of Richmond, and I've mentioned him previously here, where he was profiled in UR's alumni magazine.

It turns out he has a website with some good teaching material. One of the links is to a set of short (1-2 pages each) essays on teaching and another is to his blog. Both are well worth reading. Go over the blog when you have time, but do yourself a favor, and download the essays (they're in one document) now. I almost guarantee you'll get something out of it.

I also thought there must be some resources for teachers, teachers teaches you and make you a personality, so the teacher is an important part of our life, our society so I really think teacher must be have some resources but we have xpert writers who are always share unique material for all of us.

In life, our overall wellbeing is dependent on two things: what we feed our body and what we feed our mind and soul. Things like stress, negative thought patterns, bad habits, and toxic people have a way of keeping us from being our authentic selves and living the most vibrant lives imaginable. Tackling all this head-on all on your own could seem difficult, but in times like these, what you really need is a trustworthy ally whom you can learn from, and that wants nothing more than to see you thrive.
