Family, faith and teaching with Candice

from Nurturing Educators · host Debbie Ross

Send us Fan MailToday I sit down with Candice, a business studies and accounting teacher in her eleventh year, to explore how faith, family, and community shape her approach to life and teaching. She shares the surprising moment that led her into the classroom, how humour helps her build genuine relationships with students, and why adopting her “good enough” principle has been key to keeping balance and joy in the job. We also talk about the hobbies and travel that keep her grounded and her advice for teachers who are feeling overwhelmed or finding their footing. This is a warm and encouraging conversation filled with practical wisdom for anyone wanting to thrive—not just survive—in teaching.
