Dr.

Bruce Lockerbee prescribes a

tonic against the epidemic of
teacher burn out:
Daily: Two healthy doses of
mutual encouragement among
colleagues.
Daily: At least one positive
comment about the students.
 Daily: At least one positive
remark about the administration.
 Daily: Persistent refusal to be
corrupted by faculty lounge gossip.
 Daily: One injection of imagination to
suppose what would become of the world if
your teaching and your subject were to
disappear forever.
Daily: One moment of prayer that
you will be a source of hope and
inspiration to somebody else.
