Elizabeth Hanif
In this space I will share many of the lessons that I have learned as a teacher through story telling. I hope that you enjoy
Too often children from urban communities enter classrooms with teachers who look nothing like them. Too often children end up with teachers who don’t understand them or where they come from. This is a young African American teachers view on the importance of cultural competence.
An inside view on what this time of quarantining, social distancing, and E-Learning has taught me.
What happens when we push the narrative that our young boys must be emotionally STRONG!
My view on how unrealistic teachers expectations of students are in an everyday class period.
Women are victimized daily, yet they decide to swallow the large pill of what has happened to them at the expense of their own mental stability. But why? Why are women keeping silent?
