Ch. 6: Motivation and Boredom

In this chapter, we learned that the best learning comes from passionate teaches who never let their students lag behind.
It doesn’t matter how weird or boring you are, but only how much you keep your classes attention. “If you have passion for teaching kids, it is easier to teach them, period” (Mahogany, pg. 104). I remember a teacher from high school that brought the class to life by introducing a boring topic in an interesting way. For example, we learned about Romeo and Juliet by watching him reenact the “ghetto” version. This made us think about the play in today’s life. This chapter emphasized the power of being passionate. Passion for a topic tends to breed success.
