Editor's Notes
----- Meeting Notes (11/20/16 12:13) -----
The teaching profession is made up of GIVERS. We convey KNOWLEDGE, SKILLS, and CONCEPTS as much as we can to the next generation.
Each year, teacher needs to be ready to give this learning to students. Mind, Body, Psyche, and Relationships have to be stablized or, at minimal, acknowledged within reality. You are the point of origin for interacting with students and colleagues.
(slide prompts) Mindset of teacher in front of students is also affected by other conditions like personal finances, career, politics, weather, and other interferences can throw your lesson off track. Be aware ahead of time.
