Perspective [VIDEO]9 Reasons To Quit Teaching (And 10 Reasons To Stick)Power Teaching: A Revolutionary Teaching Style [VIDEOS]Joel WagnerJoel Wagner (@sywtt) began teaching band in 2002. Though he had a lot of information, his classes were out of control. He found himself tired, frustrated, disrespected by students, lonely, and on the brink of quitting. He had had enough.

How can we expect to help them accept who they are and who everyone else is, if we don’t accept who we are? I am not stupid, but I am a MAN (middle aged nerd).

This video was very neat! I only counted 12 passes as well. I gasped when I saw the bear break dancing! I could not believe I miss something that big. I will make sure I keep this in mind when I teach.
