2018 National Teacher of the Year Mandy Manning on How to Cultivate Diversity and Inclusion in the Classroom
Manage episode 312487693 series 3236912
Hear from 2018 National Teacher of the Year Mandy Manning on what teachers can do in their classrooms to create a positive environment for students of all backgrounds to thrive, and what lessons she learned through her experiences living and teaching in other cultures.
Mandy Manning has been teaching for 21 years in countries and cities all across the globe. She currently works in the Spokane Public Schools Newcomer Program, teaching new immigrants and refugee children.
Mandy’s journey in education started in the Peace Corps, teaching English in Armenia. It was here, in this new culture and environment completely different from what she grew up within America, that she learned a powerful lesson—what we “know” is not necessarily what’s right. There is beauty in ALL ways of life, and every human has intrinsic value.
It is this insight that she carries forth in her style of teaching and the message she is spreading to all educators—that we must hold space for all cultures, values, traditions, and gifts in the classroom, and encourage students to be proud of who they are.
