Think back to your first few years of teaching. If you’re like most educators, you probably made your share of mistakes. Maybe you were too strict or not strict enough. Perhaps you were so absorbed delivering your course content that you didn’t realize half the class was completely lost. Or maybe you made assumptions about your students that later proved to be false. You’re not alone.
