Presented to the Dental Assisting Educators of Canada on Oct. 24th 2015. The crowd was on fire, the slides were electric, the morning of Oct 24th was magical! In all seriousness, this presentation WAS amazing because of the audience. They shared stories about why they started teaching, stories about small town successes via everyone coming together on social media (Hell Yeah Prince George!). What a wonderful group, we reminded ourselves that everyone does have a superpower, everyone has something special they need to share with the world. Don't be a "Bully teacher" and steal dreams, be an uplifting positive influence no matter what the situation. We heard story after story about how teachers can influence kids so young and that those influences have a profound effect on those children later in life. It is our duty to pick kids up, help them when they don't know, and never put them down for not understanding. We all develop at different rates, don't let your opinion hold someone else back. You have the power to do good, all you have to do is care more. :)
