“When you do things from your soul, you feel a river moving in you, a joy.” - Rumi
Welcome to my website The Joy-Fueled Teacher.
I believe that all teaching and learning should be fueled by joy. Joy is at the centre of my classroom practice and I want to share with other teachers how they can make it the centre of theirs. As Rumi said, "When you do things from your soul, you feel a river moving in you, a joy." This is how I feel when I step into my classroom.
Imagine a world where every classroom had a teacher that was motivated by pure joy. Joy which rose from a deep love of teaching and learning. What would that world look like, sound like, feel like? How would this shape and change education systems across the globe?
Joy is catching.
If you love being in the classroom,
if you believe in the content you teach,
your students will be engaged,
be motivated,
and will find a deep appreciation,
a love,
a joy for learning.
The resources and ideas presenting on this site are varied. Some are subject specific, some are not.
However, each thought and idea stems from a deep desire to engage the whole student in the learning process.
I hope that each and every visitor to this site can take away one piece of joy for use in their classroom.
