Haim Ginot: A Teacher's Revelation

A Teacher's Revelation:

I've come to the frightening conclusion that I am the decisive element in the classroom.

It's my personal approach that creates the climate. 

It's my daily mood that makes the weather.

As a teacher I possess a tremendous power to make a child's life miserable or joyous.

I can be a tool of torture or an instrument of inspiration.

I can humiliate or humor, hurt or heal.

In all situations, it is my response that decides whether a crisis will be escalated or de-escalated, and a child humanized or de-humanized.

-- Haim Ginot, Child Psychologist
