Teaching with Heart

Fifty percent of teachers today say they want to leave the profession; for a good while, Jennifer Nelson was one of them. But as a single mother who needed a steady job, she had to make teaching work—and gradually, she learned what it took to make the classroom a place where both she and her students could thrive.

Cincizeci la suta dintre profesori de astazi spun ca vor sa paraseasca profesia; pentru o buna perioada, Jennifer Nelson a fost una dintre ele. Dar, ca mama singura care avea nevoie de un loc de munca stabil, a trebuit sa faca ca predarea sa functioneze si, treptat, a invatat ce a fost nevoie pentru a face din sala de clasa un loc in care atat ea, cat si elevii sai sa poata prospera.
