Wade Repta, humanworks - The Well Teacher in 2022: Considering teachers' growing challenges to mental health, resilience, and trauma
Teachers are very resilient. But this expectation of resilience means teachers feel as though they constantly need to give more, even during times when they are experiencing increased stress, mental/ emotional fatigue, and burnout. In this keynote we discuss the relationship between teaching and mental health, with a focus on the specific challenges teachers face in maintaining mental/ emotional wellness and avoiding burnout. We will also consider the increasing barriers teachers are facing due to trauma, influenced by COVID-19, and how trauma is affecting the mental health and culture of the school environment. Wade will conclude by sharing with the group strategies teachers can use to set boundaries, address their perceptions regarding stress and teaching, seek supports, and ultimately maintain their mental health and wellness through the school year.
