You are allowed to be both a masterpiece and a work in progress simultaneously.
-Sophia Bush
Sometimes as teachers we don’t like to admit that we are works in progress. This Sophia Bush quote describes exactly what we are as teachers. We are both a masterpiece and also a work in progress. That’s what teaching is all about it. It’s about being a great teacher and looking to become even better at the same time.
Our students are the same. They are both a masterpiece and a work in progress simultaneously. That is what makes teaching such difficult and rewarding work.
Don’t forget the value in being both a masterpiece and a work in progress!
