Shattering the Perfect Teacher Myth: 6 Truths That Will Help you THRIVE as an Educator (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781946444158)

Perfect teachers are like unicorns: a myth

The idyllic myth of the perfect teacher--the one who has it all together and breezes through the school year without fear or stress and whose well-behaved students always get straight As--sets the bar incredibly high for educators. The problem is that this myth also perpetuates unrealistic expectations that erode self-confidence and set teachers up for failure.
