It’s been a very long time since I have blogged! I have been focusing on building my library of IB Economics online videos and adjusting to a new school in a new country, as well as adjusting to being a teacher at a boarding school (which is a whole other ball-game).

However, THIS happened yesterday:

I had a swim meet and so had to assign my A-block American History class some work and leave for the swim meet. I come back the next day and I see this note on the board. After of course taking a photo of it and snapping it on both Instagram and Facebook so I can brag and show off, I realized I want to get back into blogging and sharing my journey and thoughts as a teacher, as well as my reflections.

It feels great that my students think of my classes as ‘therapeutic’, as a place where they can be themselves and express their feelings and be heard and understood! I would so much rather be remembered as that kind of teacher as opposed to to the teacher that ‘had so much knowledge’ about what they teach…

It’s time to get back to blogging, I believe! So, I’m back!
