Mike Moore here. I have absolutely no idea how you ended up on this website. Perhaps you were just surfing and there it was. Maybe someone you know directed you my way. How about Divine Inspiration??? It really doesn't matter how you got here. What's important is YOU'RE HERE obviously interested in finding out more about teacher health, well being, JOY and relationships with other staff members, parents and administration. So let's get started. "I knew teaching had really changed when a male senior highschool student told me to do something to myself that was physically impossible." These words came from a totally discouraged and highly stressed teacher at one of my many professional development sessions on Managing Teacher Stress. While I found the way he told this story mildly amusing I was saddened by the fact that it had happened at all. There's more... Just last week I received an email from a 50 year old male teacher who was being bullied by a small group of young teachers on staff. It had been going on for quite some time and he was concerned about having a breakdown and not making it to retirement at 55. And more... An experienced and well respected Primary teacher was meeting with a parent of one of her problem students. While addressing some of the child's destructive, aggressive outbursts the parent looked at the teacher and said, " If this is happening you must be doing something to antagonize him." And more... A first year teacher went to her principal very upset with the outragious behaviour of some of her students. They were making her life hellish. The principal listened and said, " Look, you're supposed to be a pro so HANDLE IT." She left in tears. I could go on but this will be the last. I recall teaching with a young woman who was going through hell and was forced to take an extended stress leave because of one toxic parent and one unethical fellow staff member. What was the problem? Her teaching style was low key. She was a bit shy and lacked confidence when talking to parents and peers. Because of this she was perceived as dull, uninteresting, weak and incompetent even though her students seemed to like her. After 6 months on stress leave she returned to teach at another school under a stronger, more understanding and supportive principal. She never had a problem like that again and is now approaching 20 years in the profession. I know that there will be some of you who are thinking that while there are many problems in education there are more great and positive things happening in our schools. Why dwell on the negative? MY RESPONSE??? I agree. There are many positive things happening in our schools and we should celebrate them with enthusiasm but to deny that there are serious problems impacting the health, well being, morale and team relationships is being naive. Remember that 10% of a population is toxic in their relationships and that 10% does a heap of damage. Remember the old song that begins, " You've got to accentuate the positive and eliminate the negative." well that's exactly what I'm advocating. DID YOU
KNOW????
** 44% of all Long Term Disability
claims by teachers are stress
related. This is 3-4 times that of the general public
** Did you know that one third of all teachers starting to teach today will leave the teaching profession within five years? ** Did you know that teaching is the 4th most stressful profession?
1.
The
job
is
becoming
more
stressful
and
teachers
are
having
a
difficult
time
coping. 2.
Teacher
bullying
by
toxic
parents,
staff
members
and
admin
is
becoming
epidemic
and
must
stop. 3.
Many
teachers
have
lost
their
enthusiasm
and
it's
showing
in
their
lessons.
The
spark
has
been
diminished,if
not
extinguished. 4.
Teaching
isn't
fun
anymore...AND
IT
SHOULD
BE!!
Whatever we do must be a co-operative effort involving all members of the educational team- parents. teachers, admin and students. The basic question should be " What kind of school community do we want and how can we make it a reality? " All that is required for negativity to triumph is for good people to stand by and do nothing." MM Well I left teaching to become a full time professional speaker on human potential and well being and I discovered that teachers throughout Canada and the USA were interested in hiring me to speak on the subjects discussed above. I now speak about 40-50 times a year to groups from all businesses and careers but working with teachers remains high on my list. I really love working with educators, parents and admin. To assist me in my work I put together "The Teacher's Survival Kit" It has been well received by teachers throughout the world. Check it out below. Presenting Mike Moore's The NO BULL Approach to Taking Back Our Profession I
have
a
few
questions
for
you. 1.
Have you lost confidence and pride in yourself as a teacher? 2.

find
yourself
stressed
out
of
your
tree
? 5.
Do
you
hate
the
thought
of
a
parent
/teacher
interview? 6.
Rather
than
having
10
years
experience,
do
you
have
one
year
repeated
10
times? If
you
answered
"
YES"
to
one
or
more
of
these
questions
then
you
MUST
do
something

restore
what
you've

*********** If you find yourself in this stressful situation and want to do something about it ACT NOW. Don't put things off. Your situation will not change for the better unless you do something to change it. " Teachers tend to be passive when it comes to taking the bull by the horns and making something positive happen to improve any negative situation outside their classroom. Inside they're FANTASTIC!! As a result they tend to put up with a lot of CRAP and do nothing about it. This has got to stop!!"
