2018 Alabama of the Year Chasity Collier remembers her humbling first year as a teacher. Overwhelmed and nearly ready to give up, she turned to her mother, who offered advice that changed her life: if she wasn’t having fun, the students weren’t either: Collier quickly learned to find ways to make the classroom experience fun, exciting, and engaging for herself, which in turn had the same effect on her students as well. The ‘Lessons from Teachers of the Year’ series is a partnership between Google for Education and CCSSO that aims to elevate the teaching profession and capture the thinking of some of the United States’ best educators. See the full playlist at goo.gl/grYg2p Google for Education: We believe that every student and every educator, in every classroom, deserves the tools and skills that set them up for success in building the future they want for themselves.
