In this episode, which comes just as teachers finish up what has proven to be one of the MOST difficult years in their careers, we present this opportunity to rekindle their SPARK in teaching. Meet Mary, a teacher and visionary who, like most teachers, still has a big heart in the teaching game and want to do something to make a difference. So, what little and big things can teachers do to “spark their passion, pride and purpose for measurable improvement in the classroom and meaningful change in their own well-being”? Mary has observed that, for various reasons, teachers “flat line”, “burn out” or “lose their spark”. She believes that teachers “spark the minds of children and fuel them for life,” which is the vision of her company S.P.A.R.K. = Striving Professional Aspiring to Revive K-12 education. How do we measure what really matters in education? Check out what SPARK U has to offer in personalized professional development to help you re-ignite your spark and renew your teaching spirit.
