Creating connections with and among students is at the heart of all good teaching. In order to do this, we must identify and address the obstacles, conscious and unconscious, getting in the way of this goal. Authors Katherine M. Heavers and Valerie Kearns show how to build authentic relationships that focus on trust and voice while honoring the differences in individuals’ experiences and learning styles.

This book covers topics such as fostering trust, wielding language with intention, nurturing emotional safety, offering meaningful feedback, unearthing and confronting bias, and promoting student voice. The authors encourage educators to do their own inner work to embrace vulnerability, which can help them to grow personally and, as a result, better nurture student growth. As a byproduct of this deep reflection, the authors intend for you to enjoy heightened psychological flexibility and experience more joy, both of which will enable you to better serve your students. Each chapter concludes with reflection questions and activities to support, challenge, and extend thinking.

Whether reading the book on your own or with colleagues, you will come away feeling supported on your journey as you strive to create meaningful connections that lead to lasting learning and empowered communities.

Recenzijas

This book serves as a practical and reflective tool to explore the importance of building connections and deepening knowledge of both our students and educational colleagues. Val and Kate explore the importance of building a sanctuary for our students through cultivating relationships. Their explicit focus on the power of language in creating community, engagement, and joy offers a refreshing perspective for educators to explore.

David Aderhold, Superintendent of Schools and Educational Advocate

This book is a powerful reminder of the joy and passion for learning that both teachers and students will experience in a classroom based on trust, care, and vulnerability. Val and Kate's expertise and guidance will ignite (or reignite) the spark for educators to be braver, bolder, and more authentic with their students. The text is an incredible blend of linking theory to practice while engaging the reader as a reflective practitioner. A must read for pre-service and veteran educators alike!

Dr. Jessica Monaghan, Assistant Director of Teacher Preparation

As we enter this age of Artificial Intelligence, we must never forget that teaching is a profoundly human endeavor built upon the relationships between teachers and students. Kate and Val share years of valuable wisdom that will help both beginning and seasoned teachers unpack the complexities of building and supporting relationships that foster true growth and learning. There are many how to books for teachers, but this is absolutely essential reading for any educator who wants to move from good to great. Their book provides the foundational building blocks for creating an authentic classroom culture that will empower teachers and students to reach their highest potential.

Todd Kent, Teacher Educator

"An inspiring, insightful guide to transforming life inside and outside the classroom that is at once a clearly written, practical manual. The authors draw on neurology, pedagogy, and experience, bridging theory and practice with personal anecdotes. The book makes a bold, convincing case that through authenticity and presence, we can engage our students as complete human beings, opening a space for real-time, life-altering learning and growth."

Emily Van Buskirk, Rutgers University
