Creating a Resilient Best Self N2 - "Teachers, this book is a guide for taking care of education's most valuable resource: you. Author Jay Schroder, founder of the popular Teach from Your Best Self Institute, demonstrates why the version of ourselves that we bring to teaching matters and describes how we can rejuvenate ourselves while maximizing student learning. Part 1 explains why the self that a teacher brings to the classroom is important. Part 2 explores skills that will help us sustain a best-self state in all manner of situations. Part 3 delves into those moments when we're provoked beyond our limits and our "hurtspots" come sharply into view. It offers ways to avert a reactive state or recover from it. Lastly, Part 4 provides simple approaches for building a more durable, best self for the long term -- a best self with deepened capacity to respond rather than react in the pressurized conditions of teaching. With fresh ideas presented throughout, you'll learn how to prioritize your own well being so you can continue to make a difference for your students"-- ER -
