This week marks the first installment of a new segment called “It’s Been A Hard Week,” which is a space to just talk about life, and the clumsy, messy parts of getting through each day.
In this episode, Patricia talks about finding out her actual Myers-Briggs type, the struggle of keeping on top of work and responsibilities, coping with failure, and the high stakes of working with fragile people. How do you deal with highly anxious students when you yourself are a highly anxious teacher? What are the costs of making a mistake, when that mistake could hurt a child? And why are so many millennials unwilling to forgive themselves for not achieving perfectionistic ideals?
Patricia explores these questions in depth this week, and explains why despite all of this, teaching is still 100% worth it — and how a certain Australian Youtuber duo exemplifies what teaching is all about.
