Life Beyond The Negative Self-Story | Episode #30 - D’Vaughn Powell a.k.a DJ Shadow

D’Vaughn Powell is a Computer Science & Humanities Teacher who is currently in his first year in the profession. On part two of the conversation, D’Vaughn and I discuss authenticity in teaching about historical contexts outside of your background, developing self-esteem, handling past insecurities in the present and seeing students go through similar issues as you, the ‘negative self-story’ and how to get students to reframe their perception of self not based around what other people tell them they are, being genuine with your students, what being ‘regulated’ actually means, the importance of giving ‘bad kids’ a fresh chance in your classroom, not blaming others for your problems, and, much more.
