One thing I encourage my students to do outside of class daily is read!

Let’s hear it friends... what’s the one piece of advice you’ve been given that you still hold on to? 🍎📚
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I still remember my principal telling me my first year - to go home! Yes, those were her words! She told me if I didn’t go home to rest, relax, and reenergize- I would be no good to my students! She was right! Whatever I was working on could wait! And that stuck with me. I would leave my job every day to go home workout, eat, and if I had time I would relax and watch a good show or read! It made me a better version of myself!🍎📚
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
So what’s is some advice you love giving or something you’ve been told?🍎📚
