Principal Matthew Patterson: Four things to remember to teach youth successfully

Principal Matthew Patterson returns to Relentlessly Resilient to share wisdom gleaned from his long career as an educator. He shares four things to remember when teaching students and youth; connect by building a relationship, youth DO want to learn new things, they want to know where the boundaries are, and consistency builds your credibility. Principal Patterson continues to share his experiences and has the data to back up the success of his approach.

Even though we live in challenging times, we can become Relentlessly Resilient as we lean on and learn from one another’s experiences. Hosts Jennie Taylor and Michelle Scharf are no strangers to overcoming adversity; Michelle lost her husband to cancer, while Jennie’s husband, Major Brent Taylor, was killed in the service of our country. Their stories bond them together, and now listeners can join them weekly as they visit with others enduring challenges and who teach us how they are exercising resiliency, finding value in their grief, and purpose in moving forward.
