Pedaling, Wobbling, Falling Down and Teachable Moments

from CALM Conversations about Teaching & Learning · host D Zenani Mzube

Episode 1 pays homage to the hustle of the teachable moment.While I don't like it when people are sneaky, I do appreciate the teachable moment that sneaks up on you when you're doing something you thought you couldn't do, only to show you that you are indeed already DOING THE THING.  Can you remember the last time you had this kind of teachable moment? The kind that seizes the opportunity of your struggle and wells up from within to show you who you are and what you're made of? The CALM Pillars- the 4 pillars that defined my best practices in the classroom and now drive this podcast,  evolved from a teachable moment insight that I would return to again and again: the importance of trusting myself and trusting the process, as I struggled to learn new things. This insight would first arrive when I learned to ride a bike and again in my early years as an educator.   In this episode, I begin unfolding the CALM Pillars  because I believe that we Visionaries need structures to support our work and expand our VISIONS for our children's education.  Structures that will consistently remind us to TRUST ourselves and the process. SUBSCRIBE!
