"Education’s purpose is to replace
an empty mind with an open one"

-empathy (being able to see things from the other person’s perspective, as if looking through their eyes)

-authenticity (being oneself without hiding behind job titles, roles or masks)

→ the educational climate becomes more positive

→ fear of taking risks or facing challenges diminishes

In doing this, they increase their own self-esteem and self-understanding, gradually taking more and more of the responsibility for their own learning themselves rather than assuming that it is someone else’s job.

Authenticity is the most important of all 3 because is the foundation of rapport.
Take the risk of being yourself, human, vulnerable, honest! Students respond the way you respond to them.
