Dear Teacher, You're Enough: Finding the Needed Grace, Compassion, and Patience to Carry On

Good teachers strive hard. Good teachers forget they're good.

Dear Teacher, You're Enough isn't a book about how to teach better. It's a book about how to live better when teaching is your life. Credentials can only carry you so far. When life hits hard and then harder, you need a force more powerful to help you navigate the stream of self-doubt and defeat.

Packed with truth and vulnerability, Christina Lindvay cuts right to the heart of modern teaching. Sheexplores how personal and collective transitions cause us to lose our footing, how fears of safety and overcrowded classrooms leave us feeling inadequate, and how our inner critic is often the loudest in the room. Christina provides validation and support for anyone experiencing hardship in or out of the classroom. Through examination of the internal and external pressures we face, she'll help you find the clarity and compassion to sustain yourself as a high-striving educator.

DTYE won't give you all the answers but it will be with you as you explore them through what causes grief, joy, and everything in between in Teacherhood.
