REAL Teachers

have some down time??? ok, i definitely needed some rejuvenating before the start of second term and i stumbled upon/the Spirit graciously shared with me this talk.


it's beautiful, and a quick one! only 10 minutes to watch.

but if you don't have 10 minutes, here's a gem i loved in it...

"Those who teach after the manner of the Spirit understand they teach people, not lessons. As such, they overcome the urge to cover everything in a manual or teach all they have learned on the subject and focus instead on those things that their family or class members need to know and do. Parents, leaders, and teachers who mirror how the Spirit teaches learn quickly that real teaching involves much more than just talking and telling. As a result, they intentionally pause to listen, carefully observe, and then discern what to do next. When they do this, the Holy Ghost is in a position to teach both learners and teachers what they should do and say"
Elder Richardson

hope all is going well! yeah for 2012 and health teachers!
