Video Reflection 1: Every Kid Needs a Champion

"Kids don't learn from people they don't like." 

"No significant learning can occur without a significant relationship." 

To be an effective educator, you must make connections to your students. This video is very inspiring to me because it reminds us as educators that before we can teach our students, we have to reach our students. As educators, we are born to make a difference. I feel that this video will help me become a better classroom teacher because it has opened my eyes to see everything that being an effective educator entails.
