Fresh Perspectives

There is so much going on on the island now a days. There is talk and much debate about so many things. Everyone is an expert, and everyone knows that they are right. whew.... In this type of atmosphere, it was so nice and refreshing to have a new perspective on the past show. Our featured guests were incoming teachers, and ahhhh....the Talking Teacher remembers when. ha ha

Their outlook on teaching is so...so...fresh and untainted. Every teacher starts teaching beleiving that they can make a difference, that they can reach everyone, some do, but most don't. The Talking Teacher just hopes that these optimistic future educators stay optimistic and hopeful. Bermuda is counting on them to carry us further than we are now. After listening to them, I think that we are in good hands. All the best to them and to every other perspective educator, wherever you may be and whichever part of the globe you may planning on changing. I'll leave you with the words that my mother tells me when I have those hard days or weeks. "You may not be able to reach them all, but do it for at least that one child...."
