Teachers who transform a child’s learning experience create personal connections that are non-judgmental. Students feel safe when they know we’re not holding yesterday’s challenges against them. So make sure they know today is a fresh start. #TheMojo🤓👊🏾 #DoOvers #iTeachCompSci👨🏾‍💻

Here are 4️⃣ principles I use to build connections with high school students: ✅ Check In: Greet your students first. ✅ Pour Out: Share stories, skills, & encourage big dreams. ✅ Level Up: Redirect behavior positively. ✅ Reset: Rebuild trust after challenges. #TheBIGMojo 🤓

I’m a firm believer that kids can do whatever they put their mind to. Here are 2️⃣ life lessons I’ve tried to use all year to motivate them to aim higher: 1. Consistency makes dreams come true. 2. Contentment makes the journey enjoyable. I hope they #DreamBIG💪🏾🤓 this summer!!

Spending some time this summer ☀️trying to find ways to make my teaching “sticky” in year two. So here are a few student-friendly analogies for computer science teachers to explain the OSI model in class. Hope it helps. #K12Education #CTE #Cybersecurity #Networks #iTeachCompSci👨🏾‍💻
