We’ve made it! The school year is behind us and summer is here. So why do I still feel sluggish and unmotivated?
Summer is often looked at as a time for rest for teachers however, it’s quite the opposite. Teachers are encouraged to clean their classrooms, prep for the new year and search for relevant professional development. When teachers are already feeling burnt out after a busy year of learning, this pressure just adds to the stress.
