If I wished to define the way I lead, or teach it would be this:

As Vygotsky put it:

‘The gardener affects the germination of his flowers by increasing the temperature, regulating the moisture, varying the relative position of neighboring plants, and selecting and mixing soils and fertilizer, i.e. once again, indirectly, by making appropriate changed in the environment. Thus it is that the teacher educates the student by varying the environment’. Vygotsky 1926 (Kindle location 1129)

One response to “Who am I? Once the student, now the teacher.”

  1. Useful info as per usual, much appreciated. I do hope this kind of thing gets more eyeballs.
