Why every student deserves a champion | Rita Pierson
Watch the full talk:
A clip from Rita Pierson’s TED Talk “Every kid needs a champion“ from TED Talks Education 2013
Rita Pierson, a teacher for 40 years, once heard a colleague say, “They don’t pay me to like the kids.“ Her response: “Kids don’t learn from people they don’t like.’“ A rousing call to educators to believe in their students and actually connect with them on a real, human, personal level.
