I always felt like had something to say,
something worth sharing.
But I never knew what it was.
It took me about 10 years
into my teaching career
to begin to find
what i think of
as my voice.
It’s took me almost
another 10 years
to understand
what I was trying to say.
I’m just beginning
to learn how
to share my voice
so that others
can understand
what I’m saying.
You have a voice.
Your students have voices.
Be patient in finding them.
It may take time.
Maybe a long time.
But it’s worth it.
Your voice has value.
Your students voices have value.
Listening is important.
But don’t just learn
to be a good listener.
Learn to be a good talker too.
It takes practice and time.
Please start today.
