Rita Pierson, a teacher for 40 years, once heard a colleague say, “They don’t pay me to like the kids.” Her response: “Kids don’t learn from people they don’t like.'” A rousing call to educators to believe in their students and actually connect with them on a real, human, personal level.

I love teaching.
Every day our guests work to make sure a teacher is a trusted ally.
I’m running for Congress, and I’m a public school teacher. This always reminds me of why I’m running—all our children deserve a quality education!
😂😂😂
Even how many times I’m listening to her speech, still not boring for me to hear it!
“If you say it long enough, it starts to be a part of you.” So true. And I wish I had this confidence instilled in me from a younger age
I really appreciate all the words she said…she is an inspiring angel for everyone….❤❤❤
I never get tired of hearing this
Every time teaching gets tough for me i watch and think i CAN do this.
Having so many kids cry because they were saying goodbye to me (and friends) makes this year’s bs worth it.
She knows the minds of the students well.
I want to be a teacher like her!
Teaching has taught me that politics will always win over kids education, and kids grades will always magically change to make admin look good. I was just a body in a class full of kids that know it does not matter what they do. They will still pass.
I will add to the turn over rate of teachers this summer, and I will not look back.
Please to anyone thinking about becoming a teacher, volunteer at different schools or become a sub and move around to each school like I did before becoming a teacher. Know what you are getting into because not everyone can get out like I did and make it. The last thing you want to be is trapped in teaching. Omg I have seen people go crazy.
mam you are fabulous…. spectacular… just amazing …and i love you….. your spirit.. .. you are just awsome..
