STRIVE for Happiness in Education by @RobDunlopEDU

I believe that every student deserves a teacher who loves their job. I also believe that all educators deserve to find happiness in this profession.

I believe there is nothing more powerful than an educator that loves coming to school each day. That is why I believe happiness in education is so important and that is why I have made it my mission to help educators connect or reconnect to the joys of being in education.  Since writing my book, Strive for Happiness in Education, I have been even more inspired and passionate to get my message out there.

That is why I decided to create a 100% Free, no obligation, Staff Wellness Program for educators on my website, motivatEDU.com.  Each month, I focus on a theme that will help to bring educators more happiness. I create a series of short and engaging videos and provide resources that can be done individually, as a staff or in the classroom with students.

My goal is to introduce educators to a variety of activities that they could build into their daily routines to help them feel happier, more energized and more optimistic. I believe that every student deserves a teacher who loves their job.  I also believe that all educators deserve to find happiness in this profession. 

This is my effort to help make this a reality.

I also believe that all educators deserve to find happiness in this profession.
