A Mid-Year Refresh

Strategies for Effective Language Learning

During the summer, it is important to take some time to detach and unplug. While ideally there would be several hours or even days when you can be unplugged from all devices, even spending an hour or two away can be a great way to recharge.

Teachers all over the world face a similar dilemma: how to regroup during the summer while still taking small steps to prepare for the new school year?

If you are like me, it takes at least a month to get into the non-teaching frame of mind at the end of the school year. We go from a hectic state of mind to a state of calm. But with that comes that uneasy feeling that something remains undone.

On social media #goals is usually shorthand for: “Wow, I’d really like to do that, too.”

We teachers often put so much pressure on ourselves to do more. On top of managing our teaching jobs and personal lives, we are frequently given extra duties and responsibilities at school outside of teaching.

Teachers are leaders within their own classrooms, but we look to our respective leadership figures for inspiration, motivation, and support. Our leaders have the potential to ensure the school culture is a positive, upbeat one in which everyone is given the opportunity to thrive. I have spoken with many educators over the years, and one of the main qualities they look for in their leaders is approachability.
