This post will be brought to you in a series of 6-Word Stories. Inspirational Colleagues; these are my people. Diplomacy: send less bombs, more teachers. Your lessons; my impending successes, failures. Initiative, adaptable, energetic - ready, set, go! International teachers, paid sabbaticals. Me? $0. Realization: Teaching is my life story. Professionalism, time, trust. Create own meaning. "You get to be an intellectual." Elevator speech - twenty stories too long. Capstone. Will change. Don't panic...yet. Finland! Expensive. Cold. Spring awakening. Stunning. US Education = decentralization = impossible to define. Educated. Trusted. Respected. Compensated. Finnish teachers. Who're the under-served in our schools? Paradigm shift: meeting needs/ serving needs. OMG! I'm going to Finland! Woo-hoo! Culture night. Pure joy. Lucky me. I love being a teacher. Truth. Cultural exchanges, conversations, being human together. Live everyday. Thank you, Seth. Embarking on this journey; change imminent.
