Mr Know It All Teacher feels: Challenged, provoked Student s belief: I belong only when I m in control & when I ve won Effective response: Withdraw from conflict, give choices
Rude & Destructive Teacher feels: Hurt, angry, retaliating Student s belief: I don t belong so I ll hurt others like I m hurt Effective response: Connect, gain trust, avoid punishment
Indifferent & Withdrawn Teacher feels: Discouraged, helpless Student s belief: I don t count because I m inferior, I ll convince others to expect nothing from me Effective response: Continued faith & confidence, remind past successes

Self Care - Make a list of things to feed your heart & soul - Make time for yourself EVERY DAY - I m a brilliant teacher photo album - Ask for help - Give up guilt - Hang out with positive vibes
