10 Things Good Teachers Say

To do work that makes a difference, a good teacher must be able to say:

1. I don’t know.
2. Let’s find out.
3. Please.
4. Thank you.
5. This might not work.
6. I’m not sure where this is going to go.
7. Let me look into that and get back to you.
8. That didn’t work so well.  Let’s try again.
9. Great job.
10. I’m sorry.

There are others, but this is a good start.  TZT
