Hi Sarah, welcome to the booktube community! That must have been really tough finding appropriate books on the subject of genocide to teach students. Congrats on writing a book - wow! Great to have you here, looking forward to more :)

Sometimes I am afraid to ask how students are feeling because I am not sure I have the capacity to carry their needs but opening a conversation about struggles can lead to collaborative problem solving❤

That's tumeric in my water glass😊

September is a tough time for teachers. The end of the month....we start seeing behavior patterns in ourselves and students.

Just grow a pair... jesus fuck

Thank you for sharing these tips. I had never used Otter before, but it was easy to use to record my interview.

I love this! I’m always looking for shorter books because of a busy schedule. Thank you so much for sharing and can’t wait to see more recommendations ☺️📖

Hi, Sarah! I'm looking forward to hearing about all bookish things you want to share with us. From an oldie content creator to a newbie, welcome aboard. We're so glad to have you here!

Thank you for the warm welcome!

Hello and welcome to book tube Sarah. I’m still pretty new to all this malarkey and finding my way around. Look forward to hearing what you have to say. Best wishes with what you choose to read. I hope you get some great stories.

Thank you! Wonderful to see the comparison between both🎉

I love this topic. "New layers of conversation". I think we are too apt to push these books aside as too easy, too young, etc. But there is so much potential with these books. Thanks for sharing!

I am always questioning if I am enough, and the answers is always yes. Still, academic spaces have a way of interfering with our commitment to students and our profession. Let's lift one another up. It costs us nothing to support each other, even if that means critical conversations in the spirit of growth and care.

As long as the NEA is involved, indoctrination will continue

As long as you try to do what you know is good by the eyes of the lord

I'm single 😊

Great advice! Some of those teacher-preneurs are not honoring copyrights and it’s awful!

Your videos are awesome! I love watching them.

I too want to leave ....burnout is true.

Self care (or what i call self-nurturing, more emphasis on being kind to yourself and caring for your well being) is something I struggle with a lot on the work/life balance because there’s a level of guilt to it. In the world there is the ‘grind’ or ‘bustle’ mentality of work work work, and if you’re not working then you’re not successful. I think it’s a toxic mindset that needs to be replaced with the recognition of the importance of nurturing your self, both mentally and physically! Burn out is real, and I think in the academic sphere to be able to support students and peers you need to be in a comfortable place mentally and physically!

Flip the screen, the writing is backwards

That dress is super cute and will look good with boots in the fall.

Love the classy print and color of the dress. The flow of the dress and length looks comfy.

I heard you have to publish your research.

I'm starting teaching jr. high this year in Michigan- 7th and 8th grade special education. My first job was in Chicagoland too though, Highland Park :) I hear what you're saying about changing to keep things alive. That's why I switched districts for this upcoming year! It will be my 16th year teaching.

looking beautiful

Yes, no calling parents. But I have received parent emails.

Both! What I'm most happy about at teaching in a uni is that I have the agency to start and end my class when it's the right time. No frickin' bells interrupting the learning! I'm also very happy not to call parents anymore.

I follow @brianandcarrie, too!

Apologies, not apologies, for my wild hair. I showered and slept with wet hair. I was eager to show you my unpacking.

We took a group photo for a magnet, and this was the dress I wore. Loved it. 0:47 0:50

Loved all the discoveries on my walk in Yerevan. Wandering is my thing.

Tip one is most important❤

This was about 10 hours into 40 hours of travel without sleep.

Very informative 👏

Would definitely have a crush on this teacher 💯

"Congratulations, Me!" I loved that! Way to go. Have a blessed trip.

But narcissists can't feel "selfish"...

Helooo❤❤❤

This is extremely helpful. It will prepare future students about what to expect and the sacrifices that will need to be made to complete such an intense journey. Thanks for sharing Dr. Donovan

Clear and knowledgeable information about the things to do to apply for a PHD.

This is wonderful advice to give to future PhD students. Understanding the long term goals before beginning and holding onto that why is extremely important.

Sarah, this is such a useful video for demonstrating the messy work of drafting. The starting from scratch, messing with a prompt, thinking out loud, phrasing, cutting, rephrasing, rearranging....putting words together to convey meaning. Well done! Thanks for posting this!

Could you share the One precious life project slides? Love your idea!

Very good review of relationships.
