Dodging Doubt In The Classroom – 3 Credits
Students today are more likely to compare, devalue their opinions, and more importantly – hesitate. They let fear dictate whether or not they participate, share their answers, struggle with content, stick up for peers who need it, and more. Providing not only them, but also yourself, with the tools to overcome and find the power to push through that hesitation sets everyone up for success. Can you imagine a future generation with strong self-esteem, fearless approaches to school material, and the mindset to push through hesitation? I can, and it starts with YOU!
