Bad teacher VS good teacher

What makes YOU a bad teacher VS a great teacher❓
​
​
In my opinion anyone can become a teacher. ​ Apart from the nerves of standing up in front of people, teaching isn’t “hard”, but it still doesn’t mean you’ll be any good at it! 🧐
​
​
​
Think of all the classes you’ve attended before and can you remember classes that weren’t great or classes that were awesome.
​
​
​
Can you pinpoint what made that difference for you?
​
​
​
Did you…
​
👉 Feel Seen❓ Was the teacher paying attention to what YOU were doing ❓
👉 Feel Safe❓Were the exercises appropriate for you and you weren’t being pushed to do something your body physically couldn’t do❓
👉 Feel at ease enough to ask a question if you wanted to ❓

More often than not this is what I hear from clients who might have tried classes on holiday or I hear from new clients. ​ ​
​
​
If you teach like the teacher above, I would say with my hand on my heart, that is NOT a good teacher.
​
​
​
Having the knowledge in your head and being able to cater for and adapt exercises so that each person is safe, yet still being challenged takes skill and education.
​
This is what we are exceptionally good at in our own studio.
​
This isn’t a hidden talent …
​
This is something that YOU can do too….
​
With the right training …..
​
It’s your choice whether you want to be “just” a teacher or a GREAT teacher!
​
Which one do YOU want to be ❓❓❓
​
Just food for thought 😉

Lots of love
