I wish I could sit here and say that your first year teaching is a walk in the park. Although it may be a walk through Jurassic Park, it is one of the most challenging years of your career. In this week's episode, I get to reminisce on three monumental mistakes that were made my first year teaching. I also get to chat about some memorable moments while teaching in my second and third years.
My advice is simple: mistakes will happen, but you won't be judged by your mistakes. You will be judge by how you handle those mistakes.
Especially in teaching, it seems like everyone is watching you. Administrators, parents, mentors, fellow teachers, and even students. Don't be the teacher who casts the blame onto someone else. Be the teacher who isn't afraid to say "yes, I messed up" and grow on from it.
