Why children need expert educators with novice perspectives | Mark Cringle | TEDxDrammen

human connection and relationships remain at the core of the education profession; that an educators' responsibility first and foremost is to teach the children in front of them, not the curriculum, or one's subject specialism.
Beyond the school walls, Mark still can’t stay away from education. He is involved in educational organisations and projects both nationally and
internationally, is a football coach, hosts a podcast, and is an occasional blogger.

Amazing. Great reflection about simple ideas we can all put into practice when working in education. Thank you, Mark, for your wisdom.

A perspective that has value for everyone IMO. The title points to educators but whether a professional educator, a parent, or simply someone who wishes to get the most out of life, I think this approach will help keep you young, interested....and interesting!

As a parent with two young kids, this gave me some food for thought when relating to them. It also encouraged me to get the guitar out the garage and my son is going to give me some tips. Old dogs can learn new tricks.
