Im Gonna Make Teachers Outta You
In the next clip, Patch makes a reference that has had a deep impact in my career. In fact, it made its way onto my Resume. “if you treat a disease..you win…you lose. If you treat a person, I guarantee that you win no matter what the outcome.” Pursue, yes, to the fullest extent all areas of education so that when the moment arises you will have the correct answer and take the right course of action. But in the end, don’t forget why we are here. Treat the child…See the whole person…and win no matter the outcome.
